Using an Apple Watch for navigation purposes?

watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

I don’t really feel comfortable constantly looking at my phone for navigation when I’m in an unfamiliar location as a totally blind person, so I thought an Apple Watch might serve me well. Should I get a new one? What do you think? Can you use navigation apps like Google Maps or Apple Maps on the watch, and does it improve your travel experience?

I believe the watch will mirror the Maps directions. I am not sure though, but as far as I remember it does not work independently.
