I was able to re-load the deleted app from the app store by using the app store app on the watch, not the watch app on my iphone. Thank you

You should not have been able to delete fhe timer app according to:

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
