I cant can't connect my watch to my new phone

Every time I try to pair my series three watch to my new iphone it says the watch has to be updated. When I go to update it, it says there are hours remaining before completion. It doesn't fully download and I keep getting the same end result.

Unable to update watch to pair I have a new IPhone 13, and have tried everything in the support for pairing my watch to my new phone. I have tried to reset the watch, but I can’t get to any other screen on the watch but the start up. It will pair and say it needs an update, so I click install. It stops after a while and says “cannot update you are not connected Ted to the internet”. But I am..I’m connected to wi-fi and it just stops.
