The Apple ID and Apple ID Password for your watch is the same as your iPhone and the very same Apple ID and Password you used to sign into this forum.


What you need to do however, is remove the watch from your account, then pair it to your new iPhone.

You can ask apple to remove the activation lock online on this page;

Online Activation Lock Removal Tool.

Or this;

If you can't remember/gain access to the apple id that paired the watch to the phone.Take the watch and it's receipt along with some photo id and any other proof of ownership to an Apple Store and request that they remove the Activation Lock for you.
