Friend gave me their Apple Watch they don't know their passcode

My friend gave me her watch but can't remember her passcode, it keeps saying enter current passcode and your iPhone has a policy that requires a new Apple Watch passcode create new but when you try and create new is says enter current passcode ? Is there anyway around this or do I give her the watch back and she can turn it into Apple for merchandise credit
