Answer:

Okay, I understand you asked for the SIM card in your iPhone. If you want to see the E-SIM number of your Apple Watch, then you should be able to see it in the app. But i can see the field is blank.

Try on your Apple Watch:

1) Press the Digital Crown on your watch to see your apps.

2) Tap the Settings icon.

3) Tap General.

4) Tap About then scroll down. Look for the ICCID field.

Is your Apple Watch with Cellular connection? If not, you will not be able to see any SIM card number.

If I misunderstood you anyway, and it actually IS your iPhone's SIM card number you want to see, then leave the Apple Watch app, and go to your iPhone's settings, and again -> General -> About -> find ICCID.

Question: Where can I find the “SIM” number?

An eSIM is a digital SIM that allows you to use a mobile plan from your service provider without having to use a physical nano-SIM. Find out how to set up and use Dual SIM.1

How can you use Dual SIM?

• Use one number for business and another number for personal calls.
• Add a local data plan when you're travelling outside the country or region.
• Have separate voice and data plans.

Both your phone numbers can make and receive voice and FaceTime calls and send and receive messages using iMessage, SMS and MMS.2 Your iPhone can use one cellular data network at a time.

If you want to use 5G with Dual SIM on your iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro or iPhone 12 Pro Max, make sure that you have iOS 14.5 or later.

What you need

• An iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone XR or later with iOS 12.1 or later
• A wireless carrier that supports eSIM

To use two different carriers, your iPhone must be unlocked. Otherwise, both plans must be from the same carrier. If a CDMA carrier provides your first SIM, your second SIM won't support CDMA. Contact your carrier for more information. 

If you have an enterprise or corporate cellular service plan, check with your company administrator to see if they support this feature.

Set up another mobile plan on your iPhone

All iPhone models that support eSIM can have multiple eSIMs and use Dual SIM with two active SIMs at the same time. 

You can use Dual SIM by using a physical SIM and an eSIM. iPhone 13 models and later also support two active eSIMs. iPhone models without a physical SIM tray support two active eSIMs.

Find out how to activate a mobile plan on an eSIM.

Label your plans

After your second plan has been activated, label your plans. For example, you can label one plan Business and the other plan Personal.

The labels help when choosing which phone number to use for making or receiving calls and messages, to designate a number for mobile data, and to assign a number to your contacts so you know which number to use.

If you change your mind later, you can amend your labels by going to Settings, tapping either Cellular or Mobile Data, and then tapping the number for the label you want to change. Then tap Cellular Plan Label and select a new label or enter a custom label.

Set your default number

Choose a number to use when you call or send a message to someone who isn't in your Contacts app. Choose which mobile plans you want to use for iMessage and FaceTime. You can choose either or both numbers.

On this screen, choose a number to be your default, or you can choose which number will be used only for cellular data. Your other number will be your default one. If you want your iPhone to use cellular data from both plans, depending on coverage and availability, turn on Allow Cellular Data Switching.

Use two phone numbers for calls, messages and data

Now that your iPhone has been set up with two phone numbers, here's how to use them. 

Let your iPhone remember which number to use

When you call one of your contacts, you don't need to choose which number to use every time. By default, your iPhone uses the same number that you used the last time you called that contact. If you haven't called that contact, your iPhone will use your default number. You can also specify which number to use for your calls with a contact. Follow these steps:

1. Tap the contact.
2. Tap Preferred Cellular Plan.
3. Tap the number that you want to use with that contact.

Make and receive calls

You can make and receive phone calls with either phone number.

When you're on a call, if the service provider for your other phone number supports Wi-Fi calling, you can answer incoming calls on your other number. When you're on a call using a line that isn't your designated line for mobile data, you need to turn on Allow Mobile Data Switching to receive calls from your other line. If you ignore the call and have voicemail set up with your service provider, you'll receive a missed-call notification and the call will go to voicemail. Check with your service provider for Wi-Fi calling availability and find out whether additional fees or data usage applies from your data provider.

If you're on a call and your other line shows No Service, either your carrier doesn't support Wi-Fi calling or you don't have Wi-Fi calling turned on.3 It could also mean Allow Mobile Data Switching is not turned on. When you're on a call, an incoming call on your other phone number will go to voicemail if you set up voicemail with your carrier.4 However, you won't receive a missed-call notification from your secondary number. Call Waiting works for incoming calls on the same phone number. To avoid missing an important call, you can turn on call forwarding and forward all calls from one number to the other. Check with your service provider for availability and to find out whether additional fees apply.

Switch phone numbers for a call

You can switch phone numbers before you make a call. If you're calling someone in your Favourites list, follow these steps:

1. Tap the Info button 
   
   .
2. Tap the current phone number. 
3. Tap your other number. 

If you're using the keypad, follow these steps:

1. Enter the phone number.
2. Tap the phone number, near the top of the screen. 
3. Tap the number that you want to use.

Send messages with iMessage and SMS/MMS

You can use iMessage or SMS/MMS to send messages with either phone number.5 You can choose a number to use before or after starting a conversation. Here's how. 

Choose a number before sending an iMessage or SMS/MMS message

1. Open Messages.
2. Tap the New button, in the top right-hand corner of the screen.
3. Enter your contact's name.
4. Tap the current phone number.
5. Tap the number that you want to use.

Switch numbers during a conversation

1. Tap the number you're using, near the top of the screen.
2. Choose the number you want to use instead.

Find out about Dual SIM status icons

When Service provider 1 is in use, the other line will show No Service. 

The status bar shows that the device is connected to Wi-Fi and Carrier 2 is using Wi-Fi Calling.

With Allow Mobile Data Switching turned on, the status bar shows that Service Provider 1 is using 5G, and Service Provider 2 is using the mobile data of Service Provider 1 and has Wi-Fi calling enabled.

Change your cellular data number

One number at a time can use cellular data. To change which number uses cellular data, follow these steps:

1. Go to Settings.
2. Tap either mobile or Mobile Data.
3. Tap Cellular Data. 
4. Tap the number that you want to be using cellular data. 

If you turn on Allow Mobile Data Switching, then while you're on a voice call on your voice-only number, that number will automatically switch to using voice and data.6 This lets you use both voice and data while on the call.

If you turn off Allow Cellular Data Switching and you're active on a voice number that isn't your designated cellular data number, then cellular data won't work when you're on the call.

To turn on Allow Cellular Data Switching, follow these steps:

1. Go to Settings.
2. Tap either Cellular or Mobile Data.
3. Tap Cellular Data.
4. Turn on Allow Cellular Data Switching.

Manage cellular settings

To change your cellular settings for each of your plans, follow these steps:

1. Go to Settings.
2. Tap either mobile or Mobile Data.
3. Tap the number that you want to change.
4. Tap each option and set it as you normally would.
