Hello. I got Apple Watch from friend and i can not pair it with iPhone it sais this device is linked with other’s mobile and previous owned must delete it from his device. It sais also when i put my iCloud account that password is incorrect.

You are going to have to get in contact with this friend and have him remove it from his account. This is what he needs to do, What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Apple Watch, or buy one from someone else - Apple Support If they do not remove it from their account, you will not be able to activate and pair it to your iPhone.
