Buying Watch Series 3 (with cellular) abroad

If you live in a country with no carriers at launch (such as Ireland) for the Apple Watch 3 (with cellular), can you still purchase one abroad (eg. in the UK) and use it like a regular Apple Watch until a carrier in your home country begins offering service?



Hi

 

Apple Watch (GPS + Cellular) is not locked to any specific carrier and has a built-in eSIM that copies information from the iPhone's SIM card.

 

The built-in cellular features require a carrier plan in your country of use that specifically includes support for Apple Watch (including the carrier activating the device on the plan).

 

If buying Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular) in another country, then you would need to buy a model that supports the relevant LTE and UMTS bands for your intended country of use and your supported carrier there.

 

There are three different regional versions of Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular), each supporting different LTE and UMTS bands, as detailed here:

 

 

If in doubt, I suggest that you contact your intended carrier to ask whether any given model can be used on their network with a plan for iPhone that supports Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular).

 

Note also that the built-in cellular features cannot be used when roaming.

 

Also keep in mind that warranty service may be restricted to the country in which Apple Watch is originally purchased.
