I ran into the same problem. I found out that I should have unpaired the watch from my old iPhone before trying to pair it with the new iPhone. I ended up resetting the watch but when asked about keeping the cell plan I said yes. when my granddaughter got her new iPhone we made sure to unpair her watch with the old iPhone before trying to pair it with the new iPhone.
