In our famous Slovakia, with a specific market and, of course, specific prices and services, still nothing... I don't even know if it's sad or comical.
What would it be good for you in Putin's enclave? 😁
exactly the same as you.

Well, tooneThis is exactly what annoyed me on my last vacation. That I pay a flat rate for my watch and then it turns off while I'm on vacation :-)
Thus, according to information from Telekom CZ (link below), roaming on AWC is also available in Slovakia through the Telekom operator. It follows from this that Telekom could launch the service in the near future, because it is technically ready for it... Look at the travel link - in which countries.

however, according to the telecom, roaming works via VolTe / Voice over LTE, which is a service that almost all operators already have. So it doesn't depend on Apple implementation at the given operator.
So today I contacted Telekom SK and the answer is this:
Hello Igor,
hodinky Apple watch eSIM profile download for the Slovenská region so far
they do not support republics.
In this case, support is conditional on the watch manufacturer's decision and
at the same time supporting some other network functionalities on the side
operator.
With this watch, the customer will not connect to the Slovak mobile network, a
even if you Apple Watch purchases abroad and uses an eSIM
foreign operator.
So, I guess
Well, that's not quite the case. The point is that AWC has the same number as he does iPhone. It is not a classic eSIM. And the dog is apparently buried here. Why would only Telekom support it here in SK? Do other operators not have VolTe? In addition, there is a description of calls and data on the page, then only calls and only data (in roaming).
At Telekom SK, it was decided to deploy AW this year over the summer, but the management rejected it, saying it is expensive and not worth it
They are right.
