Apple Watch sync

Hello,


I recently bought a new iPhone as my old one got broken. I can no longer use/access the old phone unfortunately, it is not repairable.


I need to pair my watch with my new phone but it looks like, from my online research, to be able to do that I need to erase the watch first -> it’s not possible to sync one watch with multiple phones.


I don’t want to lose any data on my watch, so I would like to know how if there’s a way to sync the watch with the new iphone without erasing it.


Any help/guidance will be appreciated.


Thanks a lot,

Gorkem

Setup your Watch to a new iPhone


And start at the section that says "if you don't have your old phone or have erased it"

Hopefully you've got a recent backup of your old phone in icloud.
