iPhone Cellular Carriers that support the Apple Watch, which models, the radio frequencies each model uses, and the country where they offer service:

Metro PCS is not listed.


The Cellular Apple Watch shares the iPhone's phone number, so the carrier must be capable of sharing the phone number, and willing to offer this service, or if they buy cellular capacity from another carrier, then contractually allowed, or if they are a subsidiary of a carrier, the carrier must be willing to offer that service on their subsidiary (some carriers only offer Apple Watch support on their higher priced iPhone plans).
