After doing a reset to default the watch would not pair with my iPhone

The only solution I found was to delete the Venu 2 device from Connect and start the pair process all over again from scratch.

Isn’t this to be expected? If you reset the watch it doesn’t know what it has been paired with so you have to start the pairing process again. The phone thinks it’s paired though. Answer is therefore to delete from Phone/Connect and re-pair.

After a master reset of the watch, make sure that you remove the watch from the Garmin Connect mobile app and the phone's Bluetooth menu.
