Do you need an iPhone just to use the watch for time purposes only? I received the Apple watch as a gift, but I don't own an iPhone, I do have a MacBook Pro laptop. Thanks

Q: AppleWatch
Hi
To set up and use Apple Watch (in any mode ) requires an iPhone 5 or newer, running the latest version of iOS.
Apple Watch cannot be set up or synced using any other Apple devices (including MacBook Pro).
