So after testing this out for a whole day, I've come to the conclusion that the Gear S watch is not compatible with Marshmallow as far using all the features. It will stay connected to my S7 Edge and send notifications and make calls, it's just that trying to send music and pictures will fail and then the BT pairing will drop and may never connect again. Also, you can not install apps on the watch either.
I figured out that it is a marshmallow problem by pairing the watch to my Note 5 on Lollipop and it has none of these problems. Since Samsung abandoned the watch long ago, it will not get any support for this.
