Use more than one Apple Watch with your iPhone
You can pair multiple watches with your iPhone, so you can wear different ones to match what you're doing and where you're going.
Add a new Apple Watch
Use these steps to pair more than one Apple Watch with your iPhone:
Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone and tap the My Watch tab.
Tap your watch at the top of the screen.
Tap Pair New Watch.
Follow the steps to pair your new watch and iPhone. You can set up your watch as new or use a backup of your other watch.
Each watch has its own settings, so you can customize each one with different apps, glances, and watch faces. For example, if you add a card to Apple Pay or install an app on one watch, it won't appear automatically on all your watches.
You can pair more than one Apple Watch GPS + Cellular model, but not all carriers support multiple, active cellular plans at the same time. Contact your carrier for details.

Your watches share Activity and Workout information, so your progress automatically updates after you switch. If you put on a different watch to work out, you can still see all your steps, stand credit, and exercise credit for the day. Depending on how much information needs to sync, it might take a minute for you to see all your progress.
Use Auto Switch
When Auto Switch is on, your iPhone automatically switches watches for you when you put on a different watch. If you want to choose when to switch, instead of automatically switching, you can turn Auto Switch off. Here's how to change the setting:
Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone and tap the My Watch tab.
Tap your Apple Watch and turn Auto Switch of or on.
If you turn off Auto Switch, you need to let your iPhone know which watch you want to use: In the Apple Watch app, tap your watch at the top of the screen, then tap the watch that you're wearing, so the
