How to connect Apple Watch with MacBook Air with MAC OS Sierra

Hi Guys,

I have a Apple Watch with WatchOS version 2.2.2. (13V604) and a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2011) with MacOS Sierra v10.12 compilation.

How can I pair both devices? By Bluetooth? Unfortunately is not possible because in the Bluetooth preferences screen didn't appear Apple Watch like a device.

You guys can help me please? I want to use the feature that unlock my MacBook Air with my Apple Watch.

Apple Watch, watchOS 2.2.2

That's because the process does not involve Bluetooth pairing.

Note: Posting your question in the forum area for the 12" Retina MacBook is not the best place to ask your question. Posting to the macOS Sierra forum area would have been better.
