It shows “!” “And support.apple.com/watch/restore”This happened after me trying to restart the watch, and turns out it was trying to do an update. Any ideas????

How can I fix my watch? 🙁I really want to get my S3 watch working again, as even if it isn’t the same as the 7th, It is still a functioning watch.. Someone please help me here as I might have to buy an 80$ tool to fix it myself. I don’t want it sent in for repair cause all they do is replace it with a refurbished watch, and I never trust those. There isn’t any Apple Store near me to go to, besides the Apple official dealers that charge a handful for a simple software repair. I don’t know but maybe the wireless charging pad with detect the watch in iTunes??? I have never been able to figure out how to get the watch to connect to iTunes…

My watch is doing the exact same thing...and I had tried the unpair from the phone. Now I can't try to erase the watch. The update completely sent the watch into looping the start up. I wish there was a fix. Funny it happens right before the release of the new watches. Sadder still was that this watch didn't last very long, but longer than the warranty.
