activation lock for watch

I purchased a watch second hand and it has activation lock. I am unable to contact previous owner to unlock it. I've tried to open a case with apple support and it doesn't recognize the serial number. Suggestions?

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.
