Apple Account password request on watch (feddit.org)

Maybe someone can help me with my problem. I have two iPhones and my Apple Watch on my Apple account. One iPhone is from work and the other is my personal iPhone. The watch is registered on my private iPhone. Now I've been getting a request to enter my password several times a day for some time. How do I get rid of this?

When I enter my password, this message appears again shortly afterwards. Restarting the watch and resetting it has done nothing.

But you don’t get this on any of your phones? Normally this occurs on all devices the account is linked to, when you login e.g. on a different device.

If these popups are not initiated by yourself, consider changing your password…

But I can only use one device at a time with the Apple Watch. If I want to pair the watch with a new device, do I have to reset the watch first or not?

Not sure, but why would you want to keep switching back and forth?
