I bought a new Apple Watch for my wife. She has a 1st gen iPhone SE (she just loves it and doesn't want to upgrade). The watch won't work with her phone - obviously something I should have checked into before purchasing. Is there anything I can do? Like maybe swap the watch out for an earlier model?

Looks like you’re right. For the fine print to be right, Apple Watch Series 7 would have to ship with watchOS 8. Do you think they’re still shipping like that? What a weird dilemma.
