On Settings-Phone-Status, turning off connection disables Bluetooth also.

I don't think it gets turned off entirely, because when I turn on bluetooth from the phone, i still se te watch as an avaioanle device to connect to(whereas it's turned off supposedly in the watch).

I don't know how to turn it off entirely.

Try holding light button down and deselect phone/bluetooth

This doesn't disable other Bluetooth connections

I think selecting flight mode from this menu will disable Bluetooth.

With airplane on and phone disabled though, bluetooth can be up if start the Music widget (with left down button) and connect to headphones.
