Apple Watch 2 Software Update won't work

Why will my iwatch not upgrade? Installation paused. To install the update, Apple watch must be connected to the charger (Which it is), and charged to at least 50% (Mine is 100%). Click ok button and nothing happens...any ideas? This is a question ask by another Apple follower and it was not answered or at least the answer didn't work.

Hi


If you are having issues updating your Apple Watch to watchOS 3 from an earlier version, the following steps may help (try again after each):


If you have not yet done so, update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS 10 (currently 10.0.1):


On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > General > Usage > Software Update - delete any update file, if one is shown.


Delete any beta profiles (on your iPhone and/or watch) and restart both devices (this only applies if you have ever participated in an Apple Beta Software Program).


Restart both your iPhone and your watch:


Unpair and re-pair your watch:
