Welcome to Android Central! Non-Android Wear watches like yours aren't compatible with any Android Wear watchfaces. For those kinds of watches, you have to rely on the manufacturer for additional watchfaces (and given that most of these kinds of Android watches are made by obscure or no-name Chinese companies, it's unlikely that they offer many other watchfaces).

You're probably not going to get much help here since your OS is full android and this being an android WEAR forum. The two are not the same and as far as apps go they generally do not cross-over from one ecosystem to the other. Furthermore that watch OS looks like its HEAVILY skinned with its own proprietary launcher. So even though its foundation may be 5.x Lolipop, its questionable just how "open" it is to customizations.

This is the only forum I know dedicated to full-android smart watches: (although it doesn't appear they have much of a following for that watch)
Round Android Smart Watches Forum

Theres also some good information exchange on the XDA developer forum for full android smart watches, although that particular watch may not be very popular.

SmartWatch Ticks channel on youtube has some excellent tutorials for full-android watches and installing custom watch faces.

Good Luck!!
