Greetings PaulReacts,


It sounds like you are unable to set up cellular on your Apple Watch. We know how important this is for you, and we will help get you to the right place to find a resolution.


Have you made sure that your cellular carrier supports Apple Watch GPS + Cellular? More info about this can be found here: Apple Watch - Carriers - Apple


If they are a supported carrier, then please let us know what iPhone model and iOS version you are using to contiune troubleshooting.


Also, you mentioned you updated your Apple Watch, but indicated when posted you're using watchOS 8. The latest watchOS is watchOS 9.4: About watchOS 9 Updates - Apple Support

If you need update info: Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support


All the best!
