I bought a used Apple Watch. How do I remove old account without the password?

I bought a used Apple Watch. When I try to connect to my phone, it asks for the password from the previous owner. I don't have that. How can I reset to make it mine? Thank you!

The person that you bought this watch from needs to follow all the steps in this link;

Prepare the watch so the buyer can use it.

If they can't or won't then get your money back or recycle the watch and put it down to experience.
