Each carrier listed has a specific Apple Watch model number. The model numbers for U.S. Apple Watches will be different than the model numbers for India. But you will find that the model numbers for India are the same for many other countries.


But note, the warranty is NOT international, so buying outside of India may not be able to get warranty service unless returning to the country where purchased.


Not all countries support all features, so you want to make sure the country where you buy has the same feature set as India
