Unpair and erase Apple Watch Ultra
There are two ways to remove the contents and settings of your Apple Watch:
Unpair your Apple Watch Ultra from your iPhone. This erases the contents and removes Activation Lock (which prevents someone else from activating it). Do this if you plan to sell or give away your Apple Watch.
Erase your Apple Watch Ultra. This erases all content and settings from Apple Watch, but leaves it paired with your iPhone. Do this if you plan to keep your Apple Watch, and just need to reset it.
Unpair Apple Watch Ultra and remove Activation Lock
Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.
Tap My Watch, then tap All Watches.
Tap
next to your watch, then tap Unpair Apple Watch.
Your Apple Watch Ultra is erased and removed from your iCloud account, Activation Lock is removed, and your watch is ready to be set up again. For more information, see the Apple Support article About Activation Lock on your Apple Watch.

When the process finishes, set up your watch again. When asked, restore from a backup.
You can also open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, tap My Watch, go to General > Reset, then tap Erase Apple Watch Content and Settings.
Note: If you can’t access the Settings app on your Apple Watch Ultra because you’ve forgotten your passcode, you must reset it.
