Forgot unlock code and lost my previous iPhone it was linked with

So I forgot my unlock code to my Apple Watch series 7 and a couple weeks ago went furniture shopping and lost my iPhone in one of the couch’s. I got my replacement phone and everything transferred from iCloud but I go into the watch app and it is asking me to pair a watch again. But again, I can’t get into it. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 8
