way to show text notifications on iPhone only?

I would prefer to only receive iMessage/text notifications on my iPhone XS and not my iwatch 5. Is that possible? When I customized notifications in the Watch app on my iPhone to “notifications off ”, I stopped receiving iPhone text notifications as well (when my iPhone was locked). Is it possible to only receive text notifications on your iPhone when you have a paired iwatch? Thanks!

I just tested mine, and when I went into the Watch app on the iPhone, then Notifications>Messages>Custom and turned notifications off, I had someone send me a test message after locking my phone and it came through just fine. You might want to check that again. Make sure you have not done anything on the iPhone to Notifications there.
