No, you can't. You don't insert any Sim into any of these watches. It has 
something inside built-in. So you need your phone and your phone number. So 
presumably, if you switched to a different carrier, all you would have to do is 
repair the watch with the phone. I'm not sure about that, but I don't see why 
that wouldn't work. It's one-size-fits-all as far as the wach  goes.
