First have a look at the troubleshooting wiki pages at:

https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/TroubleshootingData

In particular, Subject 1 has a skull strip problem, and the fix info is
here:

https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/SkullStripFix

I'm guessing you have seen this page since you have already attempted
one type of fix (adjusting the watershed parameters).  The alternative
fix is the slice-by-slice manual editing.

You could also try adding the wsatlas flag:

  recon-all -s (subject) -skullstrip -wsatlas

which will use an atlas to help with the skull-strip.

Does the contrast of your image look good?  That is, comparing your
orig.mgz to that of the sample subject 'bert' included with freesurfer?
