Hello Oleksandr_2023,

We see that you're not able to pair your Apple Watch Series 5 with your iPhone. To clarify, have you completed the steps from the resource you were reviewing?

Set up your Apple Watch

"Make sure that your iPhone has the latest version of iOS. (Secure your data with a backup before proceeding)
Turn off your iPhone and turn it back on.
Turn off your Apple Watch and turn it back on."

If so, and you continue to experience the same behavior, we suggest that you reach out to Apple directly. You can follow this resource to connect with them: Get Support

Best regards.
