Can Apple Watch connect to iPhone without Bluetooth
Your Apple Watch uses Bluetooth when your iPhone is near, which conserves power. If Bluetooth isn't available, your Apple Watch will try to use Wi-Fi. For example, if compatible Wi-Fi is available and your iPhone isn't in Bluetooth range, your Apple Watch uses Wi-Fi.
Can I use my Apple Watch without pairing it to my iPhone?
Unfortunately, you can't without pairing it first.
You'll have to do this to use any of the watch's features. The good news is that you can use your watch without the iPhone nearby once you've paired it.
