Hello Fanus, In order to pair an Apple Watch with a new phone, you need to unpair it from the old one. I have had to do this a few times when I have just gotten a new iPhone. What I usually do is unpair it, then back up the ipHone. Then I restore the new iPhone from the backup of the old one, which means I also get the backup of the Apple Watch. Then when I pair the watch to the phone, I can restore from the latest watch backup.
If this isn't a new iPhone, I don't know how you would get a backup of your watch from the old phone onto the new one. You might want to check with Apple.
