Samsung Note 2

Does anyone know if you must have nfc for the gear to work with the note 2?
I have a carbon fiber back without nfc. My new Xmas gift will not pair and this is all I can think is the problem.
I have upgraded to 4.3 and downloaded the gear manager.
Thanks and Merry Christmas.

Update? will pair without nfc.

I needed NFC as I paired by touching the charging dock to the back of my phone.
