activation lock

I have an apple watch that’s been mine since i bought it. I reset my phone and watch and created a whole new apple ID and now my watch has an activation lock. I don’t remember my apple ID or password that was used for the watch the first time.

This is a security feature to prevent theft. You’ll have to try and recover your Apple ID to unlock it.
