New watch does not pair with iphone. Although the iphone 6 has the latest software 12.4.7 pairing continues to ask for an iphone update. Can't get past this. Unpaired and paired again with same update request.

How do I get by this

iPhone 6, iOS 12

If the watch is running WatchOS6 then you will need a phone that is running ios13 or higher.
