A GPS only Apple Watch will work anywhere in the world that your iPhone works. A GPS only Apple Watch does Everything the cellular model does as long as your iPhone is nearby, where nearby is say somewhere inside a typical 3-4 bedroom home.
A Cellular Apple Watch has region based radios, and the U.S. cellular radios ONLY work in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.
iPhone Cellular Carriers that support the Apple Watch, which models, the radio frequencies each model uses, and the country where they offer service:

Also the warranty is not international, so you would have to return to the U.S. for warranty repairs.
Also some features are country limited. The worse offender is ECG and requires government approval in the country where purchased and the country where used, so if you are going to buy outside of Ireland, make sure you can use the features you want
