Apple Watch update stuck on verifying update? Ideas?

It happens to me. I just contact apple support, and after some checks on the iphone, the decision was to reboot the watch (pressing the two buttons). After this, we choose again to do the software update on the iPhone App for the watch and the update starts and finished normally in some minutes. Problem solved. Thanks.

Be certain the Apple Watch is on its charger, has at least a 50% charge, and you have a strong Wi-Fi connection and the iPhone is nearby and on Wi-Fi.

Excellent. Enjoy your Apple gear.
