You posted the magic word “someone”. If the original owner cannot be contacted there is absolutely no way to remove Activation Lock. The watch is useless to you. Recycle it properly.

If you can't return it to the person who "gifted" it to you and they can't or won't remove the activation lock, drop it in the recycle bin at your local electronics store.
It's useless.
