Different types of Apple Watch chargers?

I recently bought a charger for my series 7000 42mm Apple Watch. I bought the first charger I saw and now when I charge my watch it says that the acessory is not supported by Apple and dies again before i can pair it to my phone. The charger I bought is the 1mm magnetic Charger. When I first connect the Watch to the charger it does show the green bolt but as I said dies before i can change it

Plug the USB end of the Magnetic charging cable from the watch into the USB port on the iPhone's charger:

The Apple charger for Apple Watch is a 2 piece kit, the magnetic charging cable and a mains adaptor with USB output. Pretty much any USB port will provide enough power to charge a watch, so it is likely your incompatibility is the cable. Get the proper Apple cable and power it from your iPhone charging adaptor.


If your cable and adaptor are already genuine Apple and you get the error there’s a problem. Either the watch or the charging accessories may be defective. Test with alternate accessories, and if the problem persists Contact Apple Support

And what charger was that?


An Apple charger?


Other brand? If so which one?


You can use your iPhone charger to charge the Apple watch just fine.
