Looking for some advice.

I am running iOS14 on my phone and Watch OS 6 on my Series 2. For whatever reason, my watch unpaired and now to repair it, it says I need to update my watch software (OS 7 won’t work on Series 2). However, it cannot even search for a software update as tells me there is an error. So my watch can no longer be used.
Any thoughts?
 
It’s a developer beta, not a public one. Not every hardware combination is going to work.
 
Do you have iOS 13 backup? If so, recover to that backup and see if you can connect to your Apple Watch.
I feel that until beta 7 or 8 such issue will persist.

THIS, when you play with betas you can get burned. I have been an AppleSeed beta tester for over a decade and have been "burned" several times. I'm waiting longer this year before jumping in to lower my chances.

That’s fine. I know the risks and don’t have an issue with what has happened. Was just wondering if there was a workaround.
