reset apple watch

I have an older Apple watch that my husband never used. I'm trying to reset it so I can pair with my phone. I've tried the guidance on apple.com to hold both side buttons, wait till the Apple shows, then release. Nothing happens. Of note: the apple is kind of shaded...does that mean something? Doesn't seem fully lit up.
