How to wipe Apple Watch

I have an Apple Watch series 2 I’m trying to sell. I need to completely erase and factory reset the device but I have a few problems:

screen is broken and unresponsive though Apple Watch still works
no longer have phone that was paired to it
Watch is not connected to internet

any ideas for how I could still erase it? I tried erasing it through ICloud and it says it will do so when it connects to the internet. Is this problem solved or is there more that needs to be done?

Thanks in advance!

Here are two ways to unpair your watch if you no longer have the paired iPhone:

See the 'How to erase your Apple Watch if you don't have your iPhone' section of:

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support

With a web browser, go to: https://www.iCloud.com and sign in with your Apple ID. Open Find My iPhone and select All Devices (at the top). Then click your Apple Watch, select 'Erase Apple Watch', and select Next until the device is erased. Finally click "X" next to remove your Apple Watch.
