Hello, Cellular means that it will take a SIM card. Some providers offer a second SIM to work on the same number as your phone and yes they charge extra for that. You could get a SIM with another number and that will cost too. As someone else as already suggested ask your provider what they offer for a cellular smart watch.
The advantage is that you can leave your phone at home and receive and make calls from the watch. But it is limited because using cellular eats up the battery. The GPS version means that to receive and make calls you need to have your phone close to the watch. I have only used an Android watch but found it harder to talk to my wrist than getting my phone out of my pocket / hand-bag. Although, I know that the Apple Watch experience will be a lot better than the Android experience. Especially as far as volume.
