Thank you for the reply, Bob! I don’t want to connect it to any network. I wonder if I can use it as a simple gps watch, connected to my cellphone. The problem is, I want a stainless steel one, but they are only gps+cellular. I don’t need this cellular, that’s why I asked.
Any Apple Watch can be used in a GPS only mode, and will give full functionality anywhere in the world that your iPhone works.
Thank you once again!
