Steps to reset watch after too many passcode failure doesn't work

I have a 3 series 42 mm aluminum GPS LTE watch . I was using it a couple of years back n now trying to reuse it. Now it says too many Passcode attempt reset the watch n pair again. I tried the steps mentioned in the page to reset by pressing power button until power off option comes and then press crown button to get the reset option. I get the power off option in the first step but pressing crown button in the second step never shows me the option for reset . Pressing it any long doesn't work. I can see the watch crown button works because watch responding normally for the crown button. Any help in getting it reset ?

Make sure it is on the charger, well charged, try the forced restart

press and hold both the side button and Digital Crown for at least 10 seconds, then release both buttons when you see the Apple logo.
