A new watch should not ask you to use any Apple ID. It should open to the setup screen and offer to pair with your iPhone when you turn it on. And when it pairs to your iPhone, it takes the Apple ID information from your iPhone.


If your new watch doesn't operate at this link portrays, return it to Verizon --> Set up your Apple Watch - Apple Support
