my cellular button is only white


My apple watch doesn't work when out of range from my phone. The cellular button doesn't turn and stay green. I would like to use it independent of my phone.

If the Digital Crown on your Apple Watch SE does not have a coloured ring, your watch does not have the cellular option built in and you model number should be A2351 or A2352
