Samsung Galaxy watch

Is there any word on when the Samsung Galaxy watch is coming to AT&T? I need to know if I need to move to Tmobile to get this watch

@GLIMMERMAN76 Makes sense that they pull them.  Not very cost effective for the amount of information they provide that BB wireless experts could provide.  Good to score freebies from though.  I will miss that.

I am amazed at the fact they screwed this launch up.  Its right in the fine print that numbersync is required.

Everyone! I got it to work. My watch is on the network and synced up. Buy the watch, go to att store buy the Sim card card that had the QR code supposed for the iPhones but they ate for any esim device. Have them out that Sim number on the account line, open the QR wcanner like I described earlier. It will restart watch it will be on network then the watch downloads numbersync for you to use after it's on the network

Mine too.  I walked in the at&t store at 10am and walked out at 12.30, they figured it out like you.  Complicated but it worked exactly as you described.  Nice watch.  Thanks for keeping everyone updated especially Houtxjoe

I literally just spent over an hour in an ATT store trying to get it
activated. The salesman in the store on the phone with tech support and
they were still not able to get it to work. What a bummer.

The guy spent over two and a half hours with me and what he told me was that it had to be done in a specific order before the Number Sync would show up.  Finally it did and then it all fell into place and worked.

Unfortunately i have came to the conclusion that the very first batch of
these watches are not compatible with AT&T's network for some reason. After
spending over an hour past closing time in an AT&T store trying to get my
watch activated, i decided to buy a new galaxy watch directly from AT&T.
>From the time the salesperson opened the box to the time i walked out the
door was 20 minutes. Your salesperson is correct. It has to be done in a
certain order. But i have come to the conclusion that if you have tried
incorrectly and failed, it will not work unless you purchase a different
watch and/or add a new line to your account. In the beginning, i was trying
to replace my original Gear S with the galaxy watch. This time, i started
with a new watch and a brand new wearables line and "poof" everything
works. The only problem I'm having now is with numbersync. It keeps turning
itself off. I'm sure its something simple. But in my opinion, numbersync is
another can of worms. You can't recieve certain notifications on your watch
via bluetooth from your wearables app like before. Incoming calls, text
messages, voicemails etc. are sent to the phone and the watch separately
via the cellular network. If the watch is not connected to the network, you
won't receive those notifications at all. Which means you must use the
"always on" setting for mobile network on your watch. This will also affect
your battery usage but not too much. ATT still has a ways to go to get this
system perfect. In my opinion.
