Saw a couple videos on youtube with step by step instructions try there u should be good

I don't get why this works for some but not me. I must be rebooting at the wrong time or something. If anyone could post some steps for me I'd appreciate it. I'm sure it's something small and stupid. I'm not even that big of a noob I've been rooting and adb since the freaking HTC Leo I think that's why this irritates me so much. I just want to flash the one rom available. Seriously help me if you have a second. Yes I know nobody owes me a thing and the work here is done as a hobby.

I feel your pain man. I'm having issues gaining root as well. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed 3.0 TWRP, flashed a new kernel, but can't get root lol. I've been rooting and flashing for 5 years starting with the droid charge and I've never had such an issue trying to gain root before. Actually I've never had an issue gaining root on any device. oh well, I'll get eventually.

I couldn't get this tool to work. Flashing the Negalite HW+ kernel gave me root, though I wish I knew why I couldn't get this program to work.

This program keeps making me download and install the damn ADB files constantly. I ended up just using Minimal ADB and flashed everything from there.

Yes it installs standard drivers, but I don't think they are specific to the Huawei watch. I'm also on Windows 10. I can unlock the bootloader, but it won't let me flash the recovery. =( it does reboot to the bootloader, but it's not detecting the device to start flashing the custom recovery.

So, this is what worked for me:
I fixed my issue! I had the same issue everyone here mostly had. I could unlock the bootloader, but I couldn't get the Fastboot recovery to work because the drivers were not detected by Windows 10, or my other Windows 7 machine. Both machines installed a standard version of Google Android device drivers and boot loader drivers, but they were not detected by ADB commands once in the bootloader.

First I went here to download all the drivers, but got stuck:
http://www.thecountrycaller.com/37260-how-to-unlock-huawei-watch-bootloader-and-flash-twrp-recovery/

So what I did was ran the commands to reboot to bootloader, then flash commands for the recovery, left my device plugged in. Then I went into the Windows Device manager, and looked for the Android or Adb drivers loaded. I double clicked the driver, and clicked on uninstall driver, and told windows to delete the drivers. I then unplugged my device (still in bootloader mode), plugged it back and in windows instantly detected the ADB flash commands and boom, TWRP recovery completed.

Hope this helps some of you.

+1 on the 'does this work with AW2.0' question.

I tried it out. Unlocked the bootloader no problem, TWRP installs, but when trying to install SuperSU from TWRP, it gets up to "Patching sepolicy" then says "Failure, aborting".

I'm guessing either it requires a custom or modded kernel with SELinux permissive, or the bootloader packaged with the Hwatch's AW2.0 rom has beefed up security here. But I can't find any other info about this.
