If you have a GPS only Apple Watch, it will not have the cellular radio chip.


If you have a cellular Apple Watch, but have not activated the cellular radio with your iPhone carrier, you can do that at anytime, assuming your iPhone's carrier supports the Apple Watch.


A cellular Apple Watch has a "Red" ring on the digital crown ⭕️
