Hi


In order to update the software on Apple Watch, it must be paired to your iPhone.


If the Apple Watch 1 is already paired to your iPhone, then update the software by following the same steps, after first ensuring that your Apple Watch 1 is enabled as the active watch (only one paired Apple Watch can be active at any given time):



If your Apple Watch 1 is not currently paired to your iPhone, then pair it as an additional Apple Watch by following the instructions here - it will be updated as part of the process:


Use more than one Apple Watch with your iPhone - Apple Support


Be sure to update your iPhone to the latest software first:
