Iwatch Pairing

I bought a new iphone and tried to pair it to my iwatch but it no longer has the bluetooth icon on the iwatch for it to pair. Yes, Bluetooth is on in the settings. What do I do?

Put your watch on its charger and keep it there until you complete these steps. (select the watch OS version) 


Erase Apple Watch – Apple Support (UK)


Erasing all content and settings this way erases all media, data, and settings from your Apple Watch, but it does not remove Activation Lock if it has one


Wait for the process to finish, then set up your Apple Watch again. Set up your Apple Watch – Apple Support (UK)

When asked, decide to set up as new..
