Which Android wear smartwatches return true for the following check:

BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter().isMultipleAdvertisementSupported();

?

On stackoverflow (Chipsets/Devices supporting Android 5 BLE peripheral mode) there is only a list for Android smartphones and tablets.

Edit: The ASUS ZenWatch 2 returns false.

I read about this article which mentions that Pebble smartwatch contains the sensor for BLE, but the standard has not yet caught on with developers and I also haven't actually checked if it returns true on:

BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter().isMultipleAdvertisementSupported();

It is, however, mentioned in Android Wireless and Connectivity that

Android 4.3 introduced platform support for Bluetooth Low Energy (Bluetooth LE) in the central role. In Android 5.0, an Android device can now act as a Bluetooth LE peripheral device.

Hope that helps!
