Apple Watch 3 will not pair after iOS 13.5.1 update

Prior to updating my iPhone 8 to iOS 13.5.1 my Apple Watch Sport 3 series was working fine. After the update, my Apple Watch was unpaired and now it will not pair with my iPhone. I tried everything but nothing works. Please help.

iPhone 8, iOS 13

According to the service centre team, they can fix a hardware problem and not a software issue. Software related, Apple already knows and will fix the bug in the next update. My question to them is .. We all dont know when the next one is gonna be released ... so till that time, I should just keep my watch lying around, not use it. Waste of time and money for having one and what is the guarantee that with the next update it will be fixed, and if not then what ? What shall I do with the watch ? I am shocked the way Apple is working these days. I am using their phones since they came out with iphone 3 and now i am highly disappointed ..
