Apple ID and phone number being used on new watch

I got the notification that "Your Apple ID and phone number are now being used for iMessage and FaceTime on a new Apple Watch. If you recently signed in to " ' myname' Apple Watch" you can ignore this notification. I haven't used this watch or charged it in a year. The name is correct for my watch. I remove it from my devices. Should I be concerned that my ID is compromised?
