You unfortunately made a poor buying decision, buying your watch in the US. Cellular watches in the US are manufactured for the US, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico Markets. If you are within your return privilege, bring the watch back to the US (you cannot ship it back), get a full refund, then buy the watch in Israel where you live and will use it.


You can however, still use the watch in Israel. It will function fine as a GPS only watch, meaning your paired iPhone must be nearby in order for the watch to function.
