Activation Lock issue with Apple Watch – cannot access old Apple ID

Hello Apple Support,

I need help with my Apple Watch activation.

The watch is locked with Activation Lock and asks for an old Apple ID that I no longer have access to. The email address is partially shown as m*****@a*****.bg, but the account is very old and the email is blocked, so I cannot reset the password or receive verification codes.

I am the original owner of the device and I can provide proof of purchase if needed.

Could you please assist me with account recovery or removing the Activation Lock?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Kind regards,

Mihaela ***
