I have a Watch on watchOS 1.01, and I want to put iOS 9 public beta on my iPhone. Do I need to unpair my watch first, then re-pair it again after iOS 9PB is installed?

Or should I just play fast and loose and install the PB on my phone without unpairing first? 😀

Fella.
 
Just install and unpair later if it breaks something. Let us know how it goes! There's a few Watch users "watching" you.
 
I didn't unpair mine and now that I have iOS9 on iPhone 6+, my  Watch still on 1.0.1 communicates well with iPhone 😀
 
My Watch seemed to get automatically unpaired when I updated and I had to restore from back up. Although that might be because the first update attempt failed and iTunes forced me to restore back to 8.4.
 
I updated to iOs 9PB iphone 6+, watch still 1.0.1 no issues so far, everything on the watch seems normal.
