Apple watch without iPhone

I want to buy my nephew an Apple Watch for his birthday. His household only has android phones. If I pair it with my iphone through the watch app, will that still work for him? He lives in another city.

Can you use a watch without owning an iphone? I would like to purchase an Apple Watch SE for my granddaughter but nobody in her household has an iPhone. My granddaughter goes have an iPad so does she need an iPhone, get away with pairing it to her iPad, or it will not function without?

Apple Watch to an Ipad I am considering an apple watch for my son, but don't want to have to buy another iphone. My friend has connected her son's apple watch to his ipad, how is this possible considering all replies say you need to have a phone?
