If the Friend is no longer available to remove the Activation Lock from the Watch you will not be able to use that watch. Activation Lock prevents stolen or lost devices from being activated on a different Apple Account.
Then sorry, you are out of luck, up the creek without a paddle as they say. Without the original credentials you can never use that watch. It also appears your friend never unpaired the watch before he gave it to you.
If you can no longer contact him then please recycle the watch as it is useless to you.
If your “friend” is no longer reachable, how do you know they “forgot” the password?
Sounds like your “friend” ripped you off.
How can I remove Activation Lock from my Apple Watch?
