Apple Watch

I have an O2 business contract for the SIM in my unlocked iPhone 15 Pro Max. I am going to buy an Apple Watch Ultra 2 (cellular) which I would like to bolt onto to a new personal contract on the same phone using an eSIM. Can O2 do this?

Well, re O2 and Apple watches specifically, take a read here before you jump:

And it probably won't work with a business tariff from O2:

It should work if it is linked to you eSIM consumer tariff. However, this is O2 who have great difficulty linking the watch to a 'normal' phone as hundreds of posts on here testify

@Wangthang

In theory yes, however, as O2 seem incapable of connecting watches not bought from them, I'd suggest you get your second contract from EE or Voda.
