Push notifications for Apple Watch

From what I figured out (which might be completely wrong, and therefore this post doesn't make sense), I need to create a separate APP id in my developer portal for my Watch app / extension.

I did this and now I have 3 App IDs and their full set of pre-made profiles.

The archive is working fine and I am about to submit it, but I can see that since there is an application id I can bind the PUSH (apn) certificate. Since the Apple Watch doesn't really receive notifications, but the phone really does, do I really need to create special certifications for the Apple Watch? And use their associated .p12 wherever needed (like parse.com)?

Or can I just ignore this and keep the usual phone certificates?

If you already have push notifications configured for your iPhone app, they will be automatically delivered to Watch. You don't need to configure any individual certificates.

Also, I have already deployed several applications and have first-hand experience.
