WatchKit - Get a touch location on a the screen

I am building an iPhone game with a watch extension. On the watch I would like the user to click on an image and I would like to know where on the image the user clicked. Is this possible with watchkit?

Update: In watchOS 3.0 this is no longer an issue. See answer for details.

With watchOS 3.0, you can now use WKTapGestureRecognizer combined with locationInObject() to get a touch location.

(still no UITouchEvent unfortunately).

This is not possible with the current version of WatchKit. The closest you could come to this is to detect that the user tapped an image/button. I suppose you could break the original image into smaller images/buttons and lay them out as a larger image, but I'm not sure how the performance would be.
