Apple Watch stuck on sync with new iPhone

I was synchronizing my new iPhone 13 with watch. While doing that the error occurred and the phone asked me whether I want to start synchronizing from the beginning. I said yes, but nothing happened. It’s been more than 12 hours and nothing has changed. It’s not possible to switch the watch off on the bottom. I’ve tried resetting from my old and new phone but the note says there is no connection with the watch. What can I do?

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 8

Hi Magdalena_,

We'd like to help you find the best resolution path for your Apple Watch not completing the pair. You mention being unable to power the watch off. You will want to follow the steps in Restart Apple Watch - Apple Support under "Force Apple Watch to restart" and see if this helps. If you continue to have issues and or if the device will not restart, you will want to contact Apple Support

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
