If the iPhone is updated to iOS16.1.1 or later you may have problems pairing this watch.

If the phone is on iOS 15.7 leave it there.

The Series 3 has a very small memory and whilst Apple is reported to be working on a fix you may be advised to completely restore the Watch to clear all the memory before trying to Pair.

NB you may lose any data on the Watch

  1. Open the Settings app on your watch, then tap General > Reset.
  2. Tap Erase All Content and Settings, then tap again to confirm.

If necessary do not restore from the offered backup
