Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities Misssharty,


In order for you to access and setup the device for your self, the previous owner would need to remove it from their account.


If you know the previous owner, you can provide the following steps to them: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Apple Watch, or buy one from someone else


Cheers!
