Watch message failure, not common problem.

Hi guys, I work abroad and my contract is only for data, while cleaning my watch earlier I managed to go into medical ID and it’s text me mother and my fiancé something from the watch.

Because I don’t have credit on the phone the messages haven’t sent.

I keep getting notifications on my phone and watch saying message send failure, when I open the notifications on my phone there is nothing there.

It’s driving me crazy, is there any way to cancel the send on the watch? It’s a series 1.

Thanks for you’re help.
