javaliga: thanks for the suggestion but that was the first those were the first things I tried and they didn't help.
Over the past couple of weeks I've spent multiple hours on the phone with a second level Apple support advisor, recreating the error, generating logs from my watch and then sending those logs to Apple. I just heard from the Apple Support advisor again this morning and Apple engineers have informed her that the issue is affecting many other users as well. They are actively working on a resolution this but it may take a while to fully resolve it - no ETA at this time. The fix may come as a software update and/or they may reach out to all affected users via email.
I have a planned call with my support advisor on May 16, assuming the issue is not resolved before then.
Perhaps this article will help:
If you see 'Unable to Verify Update' when updating Apple Watch - Apple Support
Tried every step documented there, but no dice. Chatted with Apple support and they want it me to set up a Genius Bar appointment. I prefer to wait this out and see if this is a more widespread problem or not.
UPDATE - I have a appointment at the Genius Bar tomorrow afternoon for this issue. I’ll post the outcome ASAP.
