Galaxy Watch 7 and eSIM: what to know

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 is sold in a Bluetooth/Wi-Fi version and an LTE version, and only the LTE model has eSIM. It has no physical SIM slot, as the eSIM is built in. Check the exact model number of your watch, because the Bluetooth-only version cannot use a mobile plan at all.

Pair the watch with your phone, open the Galaxy Wearable app and look for Watch settings → Mobile plans to add a plan.
Watch eSIM plans are usually activated through a carrier that supports smartwatches, so a standard phone data eSIM may not install on the watch.
You can usually find the EID in the watch's About watch information or in the Galaxy Wearable app. Note it down before you travel.
Travel tip: without a plan on the watch, it still works through Bluetooth with your phone, and via Wi-Fi when you're abroad.

For your trip, install your eSIM Prime travel eSIM on your phone before departure and activate it when you land. Your main number stays active for calls and WhatsApp, and your watch stays connected through your phone.
