Apple Watch Question

Recently I've been thinking about purchasing a Apple Watch Series 5 GPS + Cellular and I was wondering if I purchased it but did not want to set up cellular first could I just use the apple watch with my phone near me and basically treat it like an apple watch series 5 without cellular and have it connected to my phone and at a later date set it up with cellular? Im sorry if this seemed confusing I tried to word it best as possible.

Yes.


You can setup cellular whenever you want. While cellular is not active it will work while near the iPhone.
