Unless the original owner releases the Activation Lock on the watch, you will never be able to use it. Apple will not assist you with this.


Activation Lock prevents lost and stolen watches from being used by others.


Are you sure that this guy was actually the original owner and that this watch wasn't stolen from someone else?
