It looks like you actually came from the article that provides instructions on what to do in this scenario, If you forgot your Apple Watch passcode - Apple Support . Specifically, the following steps from the "Use your Apple Watch" section:
If you don't have your paired iPhone, you can still remove the passcode from your Apple Watch.
- Keep your watch on its charger until you complete these steps.
- Press and hold the side button until you see Power Off.
- Firmly press the Power Off slider, then lift your finger.
- Tap Erase all content and settings.
- Wait for the process to finish, then set up your Apple Watch again. When asked, restore from a backup.
Cheers!
