The Fitness app is on the phone not the Watch.

I suggest you erase the Watch then set it up as a new watch.

If the phone is iPhone 8 or later, ensure the iphone is on iOS16.4 or later

- Erase the Watch completely. Put your watch on its charger and keep it there until you complete these steps. (select the watch OS version) Erase Apple Watch – Apple Support (UK) 


- When pairing do not try to restore the backup, pair as a New Watch

Set up your Apple Watch – Apple Support (UK)
