Cellular Apple Watch

So i bought a series 6 Apple Watch and it has the cellular ability. It came with a new number and i didn’t know about it until i looked at the receipt. Do i need the new number for the Apple Watch or could i just use it as the same number as my current phone?

The watch actually uses the phone's number. You don't need to do anything with that number.
