Apple removes them after the newer beta is released. You have to install Beta 2.

I've tired, but i can't pair my Watch with Beta 2. Others have the same issue, they recommend pairing it with Beta 1 then update to Beta 2 and it works :/

Just need to find Beta 1 first :)

I have seen others being able to pair their watch by pairing it manually. Have you tried this?

Yeah, tried it about 10 times, still no luck. Apparently many have this issue which is why Apple (probably) pulled watchOS 2 earlier :(

Apple pulled watchOS 2 beta 2 because it was available OTA for everyone, not just developers.

Just dont believe this cause how can anyone update to WatchOS 2 without iOS 9? Just wouldnt update. Some news site thought they would post this without knowing you need iOS 9 to update that?

Because the update would show up in the software update menu, the user would download it, then attempt to update only to see "this update requires iOS 9 to download" or something along those lines

It isn't about being able to install it as much as it is about the user seeing it and not being able to do anything with it
