Is there any costs attached to using a Cellular Apple Watch, considering purchasing one but don't want to buy one if it'll add extra to my monthly bill,

 

Context: Using an Unlimited Data Monthly Plan

 

Any help appreciated, thanks

You are going to need a One Number plan @krenz , if you purchase the watch direct from Vodafone there will be no extra monthly charges.  If you purchase the watch elsewhere the cost for connectivity will be an extra £7.50 per month.

 

See here: One Number , you can check if your plan is compatible by completing the guide here: Get Connected 

 

In reply to your question @krenz , the best way to avoid the charges is by purchasing direct with the network. 

Does this fee not apply to the GPS model?

No, the WiFi variant incurs no monthly fee. 

 

Does it count as WiFi if its connected to my phone while my phone is using its data rather than being connected to wifi?

It connects to your phone via Bluetooth and uses your phones data. It also connects via WiFi so you can still receive notifications, texts etc when out of range of your phone. The cellular watch does the exact same thing and only uses it's cellular network if out of reach of your phone/WiFi.
