Just to ask the silly question, but did you put the Bluetooth devices into "Discovery Mode"


I've paired 4 different Bluetooth headphones with my Apple Watch. The only trivial one was my Apple AirPods. But I've paired Sony Noise Canceling headphones, 15 year old Jabra headphones, and 15 year old Insignia Bluetooth headphones.


And for the last 3, I had to Google to find out how I put the headphones into Bluetooth Discovery Mode.

If your Apple Watch still can't connect, unpair your devices, then pair them again:

  • On your Apple Watch, tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
  • On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app, tap the My Watch tab, then tap your watch at the top of the screen. ... 
  • Pair your Apple Watch and iPhone again.
