Why do you need to create a new icloud account? Why can't you use the same one from your old phone? If you need to, see the "Erase your Apple Watch" section of:

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support


FYI, any purchases made with ne AppleID are permanently tied to that Apple ID and cannot be transferred to another Apple ID unless you CHANGE it according to:

Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
