It needs to be paired with a phone. It has limited functionality if the phone is not present.

The Apple Watch shares the iPhone’s phone number. It never gets its own.
What if I have separate number for Apple watch series 5 and separate number for iPhone 6s ?
The Watch will need to be paired with an iPhone but that iPhone doesn't have to be nearby all the time. If you have two iPhones you could do what you seem to want to do.
