You cannot delete the Mail app from Apple Watch, see Delete built-in Apple apps from your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch - Apple Support. However, you can turn off notifications for mail on Apple Watch, see Notifications on your Apple Watch - Apple Support:


  • Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, then tap the My Watch tab. 
  • Tap Notifications. 
  • Tap an app to see its options. To use the same notification settings on apps that appear on both your Apple Watch and iPhone, tap Mirror my iPhone. Some apps allow you to customize your notifications. Tap Custom, then choose an option:
    • Allow Notifications: Notifications appear in Notification Center and your Apple Watch alerts you. 
    • Send to Notification Center: Notifications are sent directly to Notification Center without your Apple Watch alerting you.
    • Notifications Off: The app sends no notifications.
  • If you customize an app's notifications, you can also group notifications from that app. Tap Notification grouping, then choose an option: Off, Automatically, or By App.


Hope this helps!
