Getting an internet connection issue when trying to pair my watch but I’m connected to the internet

I am trying to set up my Apple Watch with my new phone and when I go to pair it, it says it can’t due to not being connected to the internet, but my phone is connected to the internet and there is no way for me to connect the watch.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 15

trying to pair apple watch and it says no internet connection I have an Apple watch I haven't used in a few years that's been sitting in a drawer. I wanted to use it again, so I tried to pair it with my phone (same phone it had been previously paired to) but each time I get past the screen with the image capture, it says it needs to update software, then stops as it says there is no Internet connection.
