An Apple watch across 2 iPhones?

[NotMyName]

I'm currently an Android phone user for my personal phone, however my works phone is an iPhone (7). I do still have my old iPhone 6S in a drawer which I never got rid of, so I do still have a personal phone that is an iPhone.

I'm curious about / interested in, an Apple Watch but realise you can only pair it with 1 phone at a time.

While at work it would be handy to be paired to my works phone as often I miss calls & get messages late when it's in my pocket (work in a reasonably noisy environment).

But I would prefer my data - step count & later on gym activities for example outside of work, synced to my own personal iPhone user account.

Aside from every single day pairing & unpairing as I start/finish work (if that would even work), can you think of a way this could work - what I want to achieve?

Been out of the Apple loop for so long now so realise this may be a silly question but not sure of the answer.

Yes. With new iPhone that has 2 lines of SIM.

or, using the same phone for both work and personal and swap SIM instead but I guess you can't do that.

As above ....... one device 2 lines ....... this is exactly what I have ..... work and personal number on one device. AW paired to the one device.

First off, thanks for the replies.

The 2 lines thing isn't really an option unfortunately.

My works phone is an iPhone 7 & while just about every department gets a new phone, my department is seen as the dregs of society so I'm on an iPhone 7.
Not only that but I'm also not allowed to know the Apple ID details. I remember I was having trouble with the phone ages ago & it required doing something that asked for the Apple ID password. I needed to take it to the office while they inputted the pass.

My own personal phone is an iPhone 6S so I don't think that supported 2 lines?

Even if it did, I wonder about the difference in Apple ID causing conflict (& not knowing the password).

I'm considering making the return to Apple (iPhone) once my Galaxy S20 dies, whenever that may be, or whenever I get a big enough itch, but then I wouldn't want an expensive phone in use like that at my work (think plant machinery, concrete floors, climbing on & off machinery daily, dusty, cement environment etc).
