On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > General > App Install > turn on Automatic App Install.
With this setting enabled, any updates to apps on your iPhone that are compatible with your watch - along with any future app purchases - will automatically sync to your watch.

AND when do the watch apps update? When I charge by watch? At midnight? Hourly?

Jul 27, 2016 5:38 AM in response to AxeBox360by AxeBox360,It looks like there isn't an way to know when and which apps have been updated on my Apple Watch at time of this writing. I'll put a suggestion in to Apple for them to have a dedicated log for Watch apps.
Thanks to those who attempted to answer this question, but all of the answers depended on assumptions such as assume when an iPhone app updated, the Apple Watch app updated as well. the point of this question is to find a way to verify that it happened.
