I bought an apple watch from someone and their apple ID is still connected to watch and the person isnt helping me by removing it from the watch. Is there another way to remove it with their help.

I bought an apple watch from someone else and their apple ID is still connected to watch and the person won't help me. Is there a way we can remove it and I can link my ID to the watch with my phone?

The person you bought it off needs to follow all these steps;

Remove the activation lock so somebody else can use it


If they won't help you then get your money back as the watch is of no use to you.
