Yes you do for both the watch and a cellular plan.

You can NOT sign up for cellular, and use the Apple Watch as if it were a GPS only model.


As long as your iPhone is nearby, the Apple Watch will do everything th cellular model will do.


I should also say that if you buy a GPS only model, your iPhone cellular carrier does not know and does not care.


Thus the there is no extra fee for a GPS only model, nor for a cellular model if you do not sign up for Apple Watch cellular service.


The GPS model does cost less than a cellular model
