It says when I try to pair...pair with phone in mediatek smart device first, I don’t understand what that means and if that’s why I can’t pair it with my phone.

They can’t do any of those steps as they don’t have the phone anymore that they paired the watch with

There's a section in the link I posted that tells you what to do if you no longer have the phone that the watch was paired too.
