Is the end of the watch charging cable the same as the others?
If so, it is a USB C cord, and they do make the plug strips that have more than 
one USB C ports. In fact, Anchor makes one that also plugs into a computer that 
ha a USB-C port, which I got accidently once. I still have enough USB-A plugs 
and returned it for one with all USB-A ports and used USB-A plug into the 
computer. We also have a standard AC plug strip with a mix of USB-A and USB-Can 
ports.
