To me, the major advantage reason to get cellular on the watch is that you can call 911 even without a plan, without the phone. So you don't have to pay the monthly fee for the watch if you have a cellular watch for emergency purposes. It is hard to put a value on that, since you are putting a value on saving your life or the life of a loved one, but for that upfront additional cost it seems worth it. Even if very unlikely to occur. I do walk without my phone, and paddleboard, and do other things. Plus you can loose your phone, or drop it in a lake or crash your car, etc.
I am currently paying for the plan (but didn't for several years with the S3) because it is only $5 extra per month; I am undecided on if that is worth it. I probably wouldn't pay $10. It is funny/weird/sometimes helpful to get a call on my watch when I am way out in the woods somewhere walking my dog.
