I cannot pair my Apple Watch 6 with my new iPhone 13

I cannot pair my old Apple Watch 6 with my new iPhone 13. It is probably still paired with the old iPhone, which I don’t have. I reset the watch to erase everything. It’s telling me what it’s ID is, but the app won’t show which watch it is when I hit “devices”

Here are two ways to unpair your watch if you no longer have the paired iPhone:

  • See the 'How to erase your Apple Watch if you don't have your iPhone' section of:

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support

  • With a web browser, go to: https://www.iCloud.com and sign in with your Apple ID. Open Find My iPhone and select All Devices (at the top). Then click your Apple Watch, select 'Erase Apple Watch', and select Next until the device is erased. Finally click "X" next to remove your Apple Watch.
