I purchased an Apple Watch but it has an activation lock how can I remove

Return the watch;

The person that you bought/got this watch from needs to follow all the steps on this page;

Remove the Activation Lock so that the buyer can use it.

If they can't or won't then get your money back or recycle the watch and mark it down as a bad experience.

Neither the users on this forum or Apple can help you,only the original owner can help you.

Hello,

There is no way to remove Activation Lock if you are not the owner of the Apple Watch.

You should try to get a refund for the Apple Watch.

Thanks for reaching out!
