I purchased a new Apple Watch 9 online and it doesn’t have a IMEI number. Can it still be used for cellular service?

I have checked the watch about info, the box, can’t find the IMEI number anywhere.

Apple Watch Series 9, watchOS 10

Which model did you Purchase?

What is the model number?


To have an IMEI number and be able to use cellular, it must be a cellular model. "GPS+Cellular" as labeled in the Apple Store.


GPS only models cannot use cellular service.
