Gold Watch series 8

I noticed that there is 2 types of watches one with (GPS)/Bluetooth connection and then the cellular connection option. I noticed that the Gold watch is only sold with the Cellular option because I see the red circle on side button. My Question is if I get the Cellular option one am I able to use it with Bluetooth only? I honestly want the Gold watch using Bluetooth option only I don’t ever leave my phone behind so I don’t see me paying a monthly fee for Cellular option.

Yes, you can use it as a GPS only watch, by simply not investing in a cellular plan for the watch. There's more to the gold version than just coming with cellular built in. It is Stainless Steel and the watch screen is Sapphire glass, so the watch is a more durable device all around. It is also more expensive than the aluminum Apple Watches.
