Pairing someone else’s Apple Watch to your phone requires unpairing it from their iPhone first. Have the owner open the Watch app on their iPhone, go to My Watch > All Watches, tap the info button next to their watch, and choose Unpair Apple Watch. Ensure their iCloud account is signed out of the watch. Then, you can set it up by bringing it close to your iPhone and following the on-screen instructions to pair and configure it as your new device.
