I got a new iPhone and now I can’t pair my watch. How do I pair it? My son got a new iPhone last year and his watch is just sitting on his dresser but I enjoy my Apple Watch. Thanks

I purchased a new iPhone yesterday because I ran over mine and it was busted all up. I tried to pair my iPhone with my Apple Watch and I couldn’t. How do I pair it? My son had to replace his iPhone last year and he couldn’t pair his watch with his new iPhone and so his watch is just sitting on his dresser. I like my Apple Watch and want to get it paired. Thanks
