If you don;t have access to the paired iPhone anymore you'll need to erase the Apple Watch in order to pair it to your new iPhone. Please be aware that you need your Apple ID account password in order to turn off the activation lock on the watch. If you don't have access to your Apple ID account password and you're the original owner of the watch and can provide valid proof of purchase information you can start an Activation Lock support request.
- On your Apple Watch, tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
- Type your password if prompted.
- For GPS + Cellular models, choose to keep or remove your cellular plan.
- If you want to pair your Apple Watch and iPhone again, keep your plan.
- If you don't want to pair your Apple Watch and iPhone again, remove your plan. If you aren't going to pair with a different watch or iPhone, you might need to contact your carrier to cancel your cellular subscription.
- Tap Erase All to confirm. This resets your Apple Watch to the factory settings.
