I have been pressing on the digital crown and nothing is happening - the Erase all content and settings is not showing up

My apple watch is lock - "too many passcode attempts". I have tried to Erase all content and setting but it's not showing up when I pressed hard on the watch crown. What do I do?

Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 7
