I recently upgraded my Watch 2 to the 3. I want to connect my watch via Bluetooth in my car, but it won't pair.
I have tried numerous times to no avail. It shows me the PIN, the numbers match, but then it doesn't connect.
Anyone have an idea as to what I should do here?
Thank you in advance, -mgbwest

You cannot. The Apple Watch cannot pair over bluetooth with Car Media centers. It is not a supported profile.
You Pair the iPhone the watch is already paired to to the car, and use it that way.

It doesn't matter whether you phone is on, off, or on vacation! Apple Watch does not have the Bluetooth protocols and profiles necessary to pair successfully to a car's handsfree or media center. What you are attempting is unsupported, and will simply cause you pain and frustration.
Add some details to your question.
Is the iPhone that your Apple Watch 3 (AW3) is mated to successfully mated to your Car? Do you see the car as a destination when you touch the airplay icon on your iPhone?
What functions are you attempting to mate AW3 to Car? Stream music from AW3 to car only?
Thanks for the reply. The watch is not paired/mated to my car.
I have not tried to AirPlay, I wanted to sync with Bluetooth to use my phone.
AW3 to Car/Phone.
I missread. I have been trying to pair my watch while my phone is either off or out of range.
