Unable to update Series 3 watch to watchOS 7, or 7.1

When I try to update my Series 3 watch to the latest watchOS, I'm told there is not enough room on the watch, that I need at least 3.1GBs to update.

The watch itself comes with 4.8GB, but the factory installed apps take up 3.0 gigs on their own! How do I get that last 100Mb out? I don't see a way to delete factory apps I don't need on my watch, like Music or Podcasts, only how to manipulate notifications (which are off already), and I've already deleted any extraneous apps that mirror my phone.

Unpair your watch from your iPhone then pair it back to it.
