Apple Watch

I just sold my Apple Watch series 3 to a friend, I reset the watch itself but she can’t get it to pair to her phone because some activation thing it has on it. It says I need to remove it from my account but the phone I had it paired to no longer works & it has been thrown out. How do I get it to pair with her phone & taken off my account?
