See the bottom of the 'Before you sell, give away, or trade in your Apple Watch' section in:

What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Apple Watch, or buy one from someone else - Apple Support

When you deleted you watch from your Account did you also erase it (in step 3 before you did step 4)? If so then when you erase all content and settings, it completely erases your device, including any cards you added for Apple Pay and any photos, contacts, music, or apps. It also turns off iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, Game Center, and other services.
