The Apple ID for the Apple Watch is the same Apple ID and password that was used with your paired iPhone.
If you are now using a new Apple ID, you will need the original purchase receipt with serial number for the Watch and a discussion directly with Apple. Or you will need to recover access to your previous Apple ID. Or recycle the Watch.
