You cannot unlock the watch. And you don't know the real owner who locked the watch. Apple won't unlock it for you. We cannot help you unlock it. I hope you can return the watch for refund, otherwise you have purchased a totally, utterly useless watch, you can never use.

If you can't return the watch for refund, please recycle the watch responsibly.
