Apple watch can't update OS

I just got a new Apple Watch SE. I've connected it to my Apple Account. It's charged at 100% and on the charger, but, when I try to update to the Watch OS to 8.4 from my iPhone it keeps saying that it can't do it because it's not charged to 50% and on the charger. I've tried restarting my iPhone, but it doesn't fix it. Any suggestions?

You can try doing the update directly from the Apple Watch. Open Settings, General, Software Update and begin the process there.
