Unfortunately the watch isn't compatible with the Galaxy S3 Mini, and it probably isn't due to the lack of NFC capability (given that you can also pair the watch manually via Bluetooth).

Here's the compatible devices (from Samsung's site):

Samsung Galaxy S5 / Galaxy Grand 2 / Galaxy Note 3 / Galaxy Note 3 Neo / Galaxy Note 2 / Galaxy S4 / Galaxy S3 / Galaxy S4 Zoom / Galaxy S4 Active / Galaxy S4 mini /
Galaxy Mega 6.3 / Galaxy Mega 5.8 / Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) / Galaxy NotePRO (12.2) / Galaxy TabPRO (12.2/10.1/8.4)
