Hey! I recently got myself an Apple Watch, but I’ve run into a problem—I can’t pair it with my iPhone because it’s still locked with the previous owner’s Apple ID (Activation Lock). Unfortunately, the original owner isn’t around or reachable anymore, so I’m stuck and can’t use the watch. Just wanted to share in case you know any way around this or have any advice!
