Series 3 is a devil to pair with iOS16 but…

- Ensure the iphone is on iOS16.3 or later

- Erase the Watch completely. Put your watch on its charger and keep it there until you complete these steps. (select the watch OS version) Erase Apple Watch – Apple Support (UK)

- When pairing do not try to restore the backup, pair as a New Watch
