Normal Bluetooth range is around 33 feet / 10 meters (this will vary in practice due to wireless interference). Whenever the Apple Watch cannot connect to the iPhone via Bluetooth, it will attempt, as a fallback, to connect to a compatible Wi-Fi network.
Check your settings Tap Privacy > Location Services. Make sure that Location Services is turned on. Scroll down, then tap System Services. Make sure that Motion Calibration & Distance is turned on.
- When viewing the time on your watch, tap on the Activity rings complication, or; - Go the Home screen (via a single press of the Digital Crown) > tap on the Activity app icon (coloured rings). When viewing the progress rings, swipe up on the screen > your total distance for the day is shown (along with steps).
About 30 feet which is approximate bluetooth range.
You technically can't get the exact distance, but you can make one device act as a beacon and work on their Core Location proximity. You have up to three proximity states on which you can check the distance: CLProximityImmediate (i.e. the device are very close to each other), CLProximityNear (i.e. the devices are close to each other) and CLProximityFar (i.e. the devices are about to lose Bluetooth connection).
