You can update the Apple Watch manually with your iPhone nearby, if you open the WatchApp on you iPhone, go to Settings/General/Softwareupdate.

Or directly on your Apple Watch, have a look at this related article:

Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support


I would recommend charing your iPhone at the same time, if you use the WatchApp, to be sure that the Wi-Fi connection is stable.

Same, if you install the update directly onto your watch.
