How To Connect/Restore Your Apple Watch Without Using A Dongle (MFC-AWRT) The Easy Way

Hello Everyone.
in today's video, I'm going to show you how to connect your apple watch to your pc for restoring or read the information of the apple watch without using iBUS MFC dongle or AWRT dongle (original dongle).
this requires a charging flex cable from an iPhone 6s and connecting it to the test points that are on the downside of the apple watch.
this may require opening your apple watch and yes it works with MFC software so you can restore your watch without a dongle but still, you need an MFC activation pass which will cost you like 75$ a year but it's really fun to check this one out.
