Pairing Apple Watch 3 problem pairing

After several days, having lost my original iPhone in the sea, trying to pair my new iPhone X with my Apple Watch 3 with the help of apple chat line (it was “preparing” for over 48 hours) it appears the watch update 8.1.7 is not compatible with this watch. Pairing the watch with an iPhone 11 worked because during the pairing process you are given the option of pairing Without updating! Not so with an iPhone X. During my chat with apple they suggested there was a problem with the age of the watch but did not specifically say that this updated won’t work on an Apple Watch 3. Apple very good and patient with me while we went through pairing process many times but always getting stuck on the “pairing” screen each time.
