Brand New Apple Watch 7 w/Cellular Shows No SIM I've added my watch to my Verizon plan, but when attempting to "Set Up Cellular" with the Watch app on my iPhone (12 Plus Pro), it just goes to a blank white page with Verizon at the top, and a cancel option only. When I look under cellular settings on my watch, it shows Plan "No Sim", Status "No Connection" and Carrier ---. If I go to Settings, General, About on my watch, it shows Network Not Available, Carrier Not Available, there is an IMEI, which matches the IMEI on the box, but ICCID says No SIM, and MEID says Not Available. Does anyone know if this is a problem with my watch, or with Verizon?

The Esim is built into the watch if it is the cellular version of the watch.
