Hello ginafromportland,

The simplest way is to use your iPhone to unlock your iWatch. If you go to the Apple iWatch App on iPhone > Scroll down to Password > Unlock with iPhone to ON. When this option ON unlocking your iPhone will automatically unlock Apple Watch as long as you're wearing it.

Also you can use Simple Passcode option ON which is a 4-digit passcode instead of a more complex passcode with this option OFF.
