Login again and check the Apple ID which was originally used to lock the watch, it may not be properly removed.


If that that doesn’t work or the watch is not shown there, login to your other Apple IDs until you find the one which is really locking the watch. If you forgot your Apple ID - Apple Support May be useful to help remember the account you forgot about.
