Watch assistance

I have a series two Apple Watch and the person that gifted it to me apparently did not reset it before gifting it to me. How do I get past the passcode and reset the watch?

How do you unpair a watch without the iPhone or passcode? I received an Apple Watch Series 7 as a gift. It is still paired to the previous owner. She told me that she unpaired it from her iPhone so that I could pair it to mine. After three separate attempts I’m still unable to pair it to my phone as the error message tells me that it’s still paired to another phone. I do not have her passcode. How do I reset the watch?

You may need to ask the person for the PIN.
