Apple Watch 5 - ESIM support outside USA

Hi.

I would like to purchase apple watch 5 with ESIM capability when I'm in the USA

next week, I have noticed that apple watch 5 supports more cellular LTE bands, I

see that there is support for my cellular carrier in my country, I don't live

in the USA and I want to make sure that there isn't any software or other

restriction for using the ESIM feature outside the USA (I have heard some

people saying that even if the cellular LTE bans are compatible Apple may still

block the usage of ESIM for watches that were purchased in the US)

Cellular Carriers that support the Apple Watch, which models, the radio frequencies each model uses, and the country where they offer service:

Make sure your iPhone carrier supports the Apple Watch cellular model AND that the model you are considering buying will work with your carrier.

North American models will not work outside of Canada, USA, Mexico.
