Series3 watch stuck in update mode for iOS 8.7.1

My watch was working perfectly fine until I unpaired from my old phone and tried to pair with my newer iPhone 12pro max. It’s stuck updating constantly my phone says it’s updated to watchOS 6.2.8 however it’s supposed to be updating to watchOS 8.7.1 . My watch is listed as connected to my phone but it’s still behaving as if it’s updating this has been going on a full week

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 6
