Unable to pair Phone 16 Max Pro to Apple Watch SE 2nd Generation

Hey There

I got my new iPhone 16 Max Pro so I had my Apple Watch SE 2st Generation so I search the watch and it says Unable to connect the Apple Watch! Huh? That’s why? So how to fix it?

A watch can only be paired to a single iPhone at a time. You must first unpair the watch from your old iPhone.

Here are two ways to unpair your watch if you no longer have the paired iPhone:

See the 'How to erase your Apple Watch if you don't have your iPhone' section of:

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support

With a web browser, go to: https://www.iCloud.com and sign in with your Apple ID. Open Find My iPhone and select All Devices (at the top). Then click your Apple Watch, select 'Erase Apple Watch', and select Next until the device is erased. Finally click "X" next to remove your Apple Watch.
