The Watch is not designed to lock your Mac, just unlock it. There is nothing to solve. If you are going to walk away from the Mac, lock it and no one else will be able to use it. It won't unlock from someone else's Watch, just yours.

I don't own a Mac, so I don't honestly know if it's supposed to lock a Mac after it unlocked a Mac, but you are NOT writing Apple. You are writing only other users on this user to user only forum. Asking us to fix anything will get you nothing. No one here works for Apple.
Either use the Get Support button at the top of this page to ask Apple for help with this. Or if it's not actually supposed to lock your Mac, let Apple know your thoughts via this link --> Feedback - Apple Watch - Apple
Well there you go. Problem solved. It works as intended.
