Might anyone have any words of wisdom on managing Apple Watches?  Found documentation but it does not appear to recognize the watch paired to the supervised iPhone after several attempts.

Thanks either way

Apple Watch Management is still very new.

  • With Apple Watch 9, if an Apple Watch is paired to a Supervised iPhone and the iPhone has the Watch Enrollment Profile on it then when Pairing the Watch it will receive the MDM enrollment prompts. 
    • There are some settings that need to be enabled in Jamf for this to work and the user needs the correct permissions.
  • With Apple Watch 10 (still in beta), Apple Watch supports Automated Device Enrollment to MDM's that support the function.

Thanks for the details, seems we didn't check the version of the older watch.

Woot, sounds like a simple fix :). 

Worth noting is Apple Watch enrollment into Jamf Pro (or any MDM) occurs only when pairing the watch to the iPhone. You must erase an existing watch that's already paired and then pair it after you've prepared Jamf Pro to enroll watches.
