Does Apple Watch Series 5 GPS require certain carrier?

I see that the Apple Watch cellular requires a certain carrier from a list which doesn't include CREDO. Does this also apply to the Apple Watch GPS, in order for it to connect to the iPhone and use it to make emergency calls?

No the Gps only version will work just fine,just one proviso and that is to make calls and send texts you must have your phone with you.

The watch uses your phone's number to achieve this.
