Fast Charging with A3000 (Series 10) and US-Purchased Apple Watch Cable?

Hi, I was wondering if the A3000 model (MX203CH/B ) can support fast charging when using an Apple Watch charging cable purchased in the US, or is it still limited by the WTP regulations? Thanks in advance for your help!

​The Apple Watch Series 10 model A3000 (MX203CH/B) sold in China is designed to comply with local Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) regulations.These regulations necessitate the inclusion of a WPT-compliant charging cable that does not support fast charging.Even if you use an Apple Watch charging cable purchased in the U.S., the watch itself is configured to adhere to these regional constraints, resulting in standard charging speeds.
