AW Series 2 - where is WatchOS6???

[mlody]

Any idea what is going on with Watch OS 6 for Series 2? Got my X upgraded to iOS13, all went smoothly, but now when I try to upgrade my AW S2, I am not getting anything.

It was mentioned during the keynote that watchOS 6 would come to Series 3 and 4 watches first, with Series 2 (and 1?) to follow sometime later.

I hear that S1 and S2 will get the OS6 update later on, not sure when.

Try disconnecting connectivity from the watch. Reboot the phone then restore connectivity to the phone and see if it shows up.

That is what I needed to do

watchOS 6 requires iPhone 6s or later with iOS 13 or later, and one of the following Apple Watch models:

• Apple Watch Series 1
• Apple Watch Series 2
• Apple Watch Series 3
• Apple Watch Series 4
• Apple Watch Series 5

This. No specific release date yet for Series 1 and 2.

On a Series 3 or 4, right?

I did the above on these:
S3Ceramic (complete PITA to get ios6 on it)
S4SBSS

My concern is once I go to iOS 13, am I gonna end up with an expensive S2 bracelet until Watch OS 6 drops?

Or will my phone and watch play nice after updating the phone?

You'll be fine. Many people were running the public beta of iOS 13.0 on their phone while running wOS 5 on their watch.

I can vouch for what btrach144 says, had the 13 pb on my phone for ages, works fine with watchOS5. I never install the betas on the Watch.
