- Knowing your ICCID allows you to check the SIM card's compatibility to another device you want to switch to.[2] If it isn't compatible, you will have to get a new SIM card.

Question
How do I determine my phone number?
Go to the icon that has a green background and white phone, then go to Contacts on the bottom of the screen. Your phone number should be right below your name at the top of the screen.
Question
Can we get this ICCID number on featured phones?
It's already on your phone. Your iPhone's SIM number is technically called the ICCID, which stands for Integrated Circuit Card Identifier. It usually consists of 19 or 20 characters, and is both printed on your SIM card and stored inside it. The ICCID is a unique serial number and is specific to your SIM card.

Where can I find the “SIM” number?
Apple Watch SE, watchOS 7

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.
