What generation Apple Watch SE is it?

See the footnotes at the bottom of:

Apple Watch SE (2nd generation) - Tech Specs - Apple Support

"Apple Watch Ultra 2, Apple Watch Series 9, and Apple Watch SE require iPhone Xs or later with iOS 17 or later."

Apple Watch SE (1st generation) - Technical Specifications - Apple Support

"Apple Watch requires an iPhone 6s or later with the latest iOS version."
