Old smart watch won't connect

You might need to factory reset the smart watch if it has been paired to another phone before it will connect to the note 9.

I tried finding a guide to pair a first gen Gear to a Note 9, but couldn't find one. This is the closest I could find. Not sure if it'll be useful, but here it is...
Gear 1 + Note 3:

All you can do is factory reset both watch and phone at this point. Otherwise, a call to samsung support is in order.

So seems watch is defective, or simply no longer supported by the phones software.
Reaching out to Samsung is likely your smartest and best recourse.

I have an old Galaxy Gear2 which came with Tizen OS(Samsung crap). I rooted it and installed twrp recovery then installed Wear OS(Android). Now I can pair it easily. With another upside being that it pairs with any brand phone and not just Samsung phones.

Just a comment that I loved the look of that original S with the curved mini-phone, I had some custom bands that I used. I'll have to dust mine off and see if it still works with my Note 8.
