I recently ordered an Apple Watch to gift. Couldn’t get past the checkout without associating it with my phone number. Can I still gift this even though it’s associated with my number? It’s for my husband. Will he be able to sync his phone with the watch? Tried talking to someone at o2 but could not understand them.

He can use it but without cellular functions so as long as his phone is nearby it will be OK, it just won't work if he leaves his phone at home for example.

To clear it from your account to allow a cellular connection, you would have to pay off the watch in full. We usually advise buying direct from Apple in these cases.
