No. A GPS only Series 8 watch doesn't have a cellular radio, so if you want a watch which is cellular, you will have to return the watch you purchased in the original packaging, including all accessories for refund. Assuming you purchased the watch from Apple, you have 14 days to return the watch. The return window won't be extended.
