Watch will not update

When I try to update my watch, it says that I do not have enough storage. I deleted everything, pictures, podcasts, apps, etc. what is taking up the most space is my activity tracking. How do I solve this problem?

Apple Watch Series 1, watchOS 3

Unpair your Apple Watch via the Watch app on your iPhone.

Then Re-pair your Apple Watch,this deletes temporary and corrupted files and also re-indexes the file system freeing up a surprisingly large amount of storage space.
