Hi @N0ky,
Welcome to the Community and thank you for posting.
Whenever there's a connectivity issue with the Watches' app, it's a good idea to reinstall the app on both devices (follow these steps for the phone app), then pair them again and see if you're able to play music from the Watch.
If the issue persists, we'd like to confirm if you're able to stream the music from your phone using the Connect feature and if you're able to download music to your watch.
Keep us posted!

None of those actions listed above makes any difference. I think a lot of us are just about to give up and join Apple Music, as abhorrent as that is. I honestly think Apple makes it difficult for the Spotify app on purpose. Who knows...
Either way, here's the work around sucky though it may be. You need to find the Music App on your watch (it's already there by default and it's called "Music") and let your headphones connect to that first. Once the music is coming from the watch itself, you can then go over to the Spotify App and press play and it will work. I've tried every other work around and sadly if you want to use the Spotify App on your Watch, this is the fastest way to get it to work. There are other ways to get it to work but for me this is the most direct and reliable.
