I use SMSBackUp+ which backs all my SMS up to my gmail account and I have a label in there with them all in.
Did you make a recent backup to your laptop when you replaced your phone?
If so, you could restore that backup.

I'm pretty sure that if it's an old SMS, it will be still existing on your smartswitch backup on pc as mi5 said.
