Cellular pairing issues

Trying to add cellular service to my Apple Watch S6. Error I'm getting is that it's still paired with my "old" iPhone11 Pro (cellular wise). Physically paired with my iPhone12 Pro fine.

For GPS + Cellular models, choose to keep or remove your cellular plan. 

  • If you want to pair your Apple Watch and iPhone again, keep your plan. 
  • If you don't want to pair your Apple Watch and iPhone again, remove your plan. If you aren't going to pair with a different watch or iPhone, you might need to contact your carrier to cancel your cellular subscription.
