If Media World is an Authorized Apple Reseller you can within the first 60 days.

Apple has a network of Apple Authorized Resellers, these are companies that have contracts with Apple to sell their products and have direct access to products. When you buy a product from an AAR they report the sale and the one year warranty starts. You have 60 days after that date to buy AppleCare +


There are other companies that are not authorized, or gray market sellers, and they buy product from a variety of sources but not directly from Apple. When you buy a Watch from them it may already be past the 60 day period.


In Bedford, Texas where I live there is not Media Market Store so I don't know if it is an authorized reseller or not. I also don't know where in the world you are so I don't know if Vodaphone is an AAR in your country.
