Q: Trouble Updating to watchOS 3

Having not used my apple watch 1st gen for a while, i have decided to pair and use it with my iphone 7. phone and watch seem to pair ok, and it prompts me to update from watchOS 1.01 to watchOS 3. after 2 hours 'Downloading to watch', I am now sitting with a 'Verifying' status. This has been for another 2 hours. Has the update failed? Should it take this long? This is my second attempt at pairing and updating with the same result.

 

The watch will allow me to cancel and reset to factory defaults, but doing this reverts back to watchOS 1.0.1.

 

Any help appreciated

Apple Watch, watchOS 1.0.1
