Searching for a compatible watch for iPhone 7

Hey guys,


Can anyone tell me if an Apple Watch SE (Gen 1) on a software 8.6 will pair with an iPhone 7? I'm looking to buy one off of someone and I want to double check before I do.


Thanks!

Mactraker states that the Watch SE 1st gen can be updated to the current version of watchOS. It can be paired with iPhone 6s or later with iOS 14 or later.


Before you hand over any money, make sure the seller has done the following to the watch;
