Q: Apple Watch failing to pair with iPhone at watchOS update prompt
We just got a new phone (iPhone SE ) and are trying to pair our old watch to the new phone. We put the watch up to the phone as instructed and then it says to complete pairing we must update software on the watch. Then iPhone checks and says the software is up to date and there are no other options at the point and the watch pairing does not complete. I have hard resettled both the phone and watch.
any ideas??

Hi
If you have not yet done so, first update your iPhone SE to the latest software and then try pairing again:
Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
