"If you have the iPhone that your Apple Watch is paired with, you should follow the steps to unpair your Apple Watch [click here for directions --> Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support ].

Prior to this new online service Apple typically required the original receipt issued by Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller and documented provenance (so typically it would be the original owner who does this, or a descendant with legal proof of ownership).
