old watch is still asking for my Apple ID. How do I stop that? Gave the watch to a friend

I recently gave my old Apple Watch to a friend. When she tried to set it up with her phone it was asking for my Apple ID. I have unpaired the watch from my phone and erased all content on the watch. Is there something I'm missing?
