Pairing an Apple Watch via bluetooth

Has anyone successfully paired an Apple Watch through Bluetooth. I get a connection error every time I try to pair.

First you posted this in the wrong section. Second - search. It has been discussed (by me for one) and it's impossible.

BEM-S4 's original thread is here.

OP, I would search the Apple Support Discussion forums here about this because I'm sure you two are not the only ones to try it. Apple likely has an explanation somewhere in there.

I spoke with Apple, they told me not possible after spending an hour with BMW trying to do it. I gave up at that point.

Jobs was a BMW guy too - thing should work.

Stumbled on this out of curiosity, but now I need to try. I was having issues with my phone not pairing for audio the other day and decided to delete all the paired devices and repaid and I noticed my wifes apple watch was paired to my car. Didn't fix the issue, phone reset did, but still interesting that you say it can't be done when I just saw it as a saved device yesterday. Time to figure out how it was done now I guess.

Also, curious why you are trying to pair your watch in the first place?
