I bought my Watch 6 Classic from Walmart, but it was shipped from a company in Ontario called CellNTell. The watch works fine so far, but when I was setting it up, it only allowed me to choose from South or Central American countries (and Puerto Rico), with no option to pick the USA. I ended up choosing PR since it's at least a US territory.

My watch's model is SM-R950. Is this a global model or is it region locked to South and Central America? Will I run into any restrictions on usage or apps if it is region locked?

Thanks.

Thanks for reaching out. I would recommend checking the box that your device came in, to see if it has the full model number. Once you have the full model number you can place that into Google, and it should take you to the Samsung-supported page for said unit. 

 

If you do not have the full model listed on the box or in any of the paperwork, the next step would be to contact the seller and see if you can obtain that information from them.

@silverwolf789 You shouldn't post your serial number in a public discussion area. I would edit your post and remove it.
