Apple Watch cellular - do I have to add it to a plan?

Can I buy an apple watch with cellular and not connect it to a cellular plan? I want to have the option to connect to cellular, but I don't plan on adding to to my phone plan right away. Will this impact the watch in any way or should I just get the gps version instead?

No you can add the cellular plan later,the only difference you'll notice is that to send texts and make calls you'll have to have your phone with you.
