Hello nyiko243,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
We want to help so you can complete the pairing process between the iPhone and Apple Watch.
Try the steps here:
"If the pairing process stalls
If it seems like the pairing process has stalled — for example, the pairing animation remains on the screen for several minutes — resetting your Apple Watch might help:
- Press and hold the Digital Crown while your Apple Watch is in pairing mode.
- Tap Reset when it appears on your watch.
- After your watch resets, you can pair again."
This Apple Support page has the full details and more steps: If you can't pair an Apple Watch with your iPhone - Apple Support
We hope this helps to get the Apple Watch pairing without any issues.
Cheers!
