Can I pair two different I Phones featuring two different SIM cards and plans originating in Asia and Europe, alternatively, with the same Apple Watch 3 series ?
Apple Watch Series 3, iOS 11.4.1
There should not be a problem with switching the pairing. As Froxo says, unpair from the first phone and pair to the second phone. The only disadvantage is that it takes a little time to complete so I will make the obvious suggestion, simply leave the watch paired to your preferred phone and swap the iPhone's SIM to the one appropriate for where you are.
There is one caution about re-pairing on different iPhones, and that is Apple ID and Activation Lock. See About Activation Lock on your Apple Watch - Apple Support for a guide, and note that strange things may happen if you have a different Apple ID on the iPhone and the Apple Watch. Ideally you want the phone and the watch on the same Apple ID, which probably means you would want both your iPhones on the same Apple ID. (You might already have this so not a problem, just a warning about a hole into which the unwary may fall!)

Thank you for your answer. Would it be fair to say that once in Asia I can pair my Apple Watch with the I phone I use over there whilst when I'm in Europe I can pair alternatively with the I phone I use in Europe? My concern is the pairing with ONE phone SIM card which would not consent an alternative pairing with an others?
Only one phone can be paired to an Apple Watch at a time.
You can unpair and repair your devices as much as you’d like. So if you have one phone and want to switch to another just unpair it and connect it to another device.
can I pair different I phones with different sim card from the same provider but operating in Asia and in Europe with the same Apple Watch 3 series?
