There is no feature to unlock by Apple Watch with the Mavericks
Hello
I've updated my Mac Mini (2013) to the Mavericks but found no line under 'Security' in 'System Preferences' which gives me the option to unlock by Apple Watch? I have re-installed the software but still nothing appears. I've updated my iCloud with the "two factor authentication" settings and still nothing...
Can someone help me please?
You say in your post that you have a Mac Mini in 2013, but your lower signature, color gray, says you have a Mac Mini from 2012.
Who is this?
In any case, the unlock feature requires any model 2013 and later Mac running the new macOS Sierra (NOT OS X 10.9 Mavericks) using a Apple Watch, running watch OS 3 with an iPhone 5 or later.
Time for either to update hardware and software!

Is it possible to pair the Apple Watch with the iPad mini?

Hello
I'm not afraid - you need an iPhone 5 or later running iOS 9 or later to associate and set up Apple Watch.
It can be combined or synchronized with any other device iOS (including iPad) or with any other Apple device (including the iMac, MacBook, MacBook Pro, etc.).

Apple Watch with bluetooth
Hello
Apple Watch can still be used in conjunction with the matched iPhone (which is based on cellular services) in places where there is no Wi - Fi network.
The availability of some built-in and third-party applications can vary, depending on your cellular data settings and a network of cellular data speeds.
If your question relates also to longer term, it is not currently possible to update the software on Apple Watch unless the paired iPhone is connected to a Wi - Fi network.
Some built-in functions of Apple Watch can still be used even when the pair iPhone is not available via Bluetooth or Wi - Fi.

I'm in a band and make a lot of drums and hike as well. A lot of things on the outside where I might have to move my arm quickly or a lot. Always do
the Milanese loop what the band for me? (I'm a guy is told by the way) and secondly I can wear Apple Watch in the shower? answers will help me to decide what the band to get when I buy a Apple Watch 42mm soon
See this document: water on Apple Watch - Apple Support resistance
https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT205000
No shower while wearing the Watch:
Your Apple Watch is splash and water resistant, but not waterproof.
....
and
The following can affect your Apple Watch water resistance and should be avoided:
- Do drop your Apple Watch or submit to other impacts.
- Submerge your Apple Watch in water for long periods of time.
- Swim or bathe with your Apple Watch.
- Expose your Apple Watch pressurized water or water of high velocity, for example, take a shower, water skiing, wake boarding, surfing, jet skiing and so on.
- Wear your Apple Watch in a sauna or Hammam room.
I'm not sure of the loop of the Milanese to your needs. It is easily adjustable and fits perfectly, but it's magnetic and I'm not sure if that may interfere with your equipment.
My watch has the sports Strip and that is comfortable also.

I use my Apple Watch throughout the day and when I teach a cardio dance class, the number of calories is MUCH lower than other materials. Why is the Watch not count my calories accurately? The ladies like to know the calories to burn when the class is over and I can't give them using my Apple Watch. Others in this class that wear the watch tells you how many is not too accurate. We burn usually about 600 + calories and I'll be happy if my registers 350. What could be wrong? Thank you!
Hello
Do not forget that Apple Watch uses Active calories (those who are burned by orders or travel) as the main measure for the app to training and activity app.
Many other applications of fitness / devices report total calories, which consists of active calories + calories at rest (that your body is still burning even when you're not active).
