Hello Bluto007,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We understand that when your iPhone receives a phone call, your Apple Watch will ring but your iPhone doesn't. This could be expected behavior according this info:


"Notifications appear on your Apple Watch or iPhone, but not both.
iPhone showing notifications going to iPhone instead of Apple Watch 
If your iPhone is unlocked, you get notifications on your iPhone instead of your Apple Watch.
 
Apple Watch showing notifications going to Apple Watch instead of iPhone 
If your iPhone is locked or asleep, you get notifications on your Apple Watch, unless your Apple Watch is locked."


You can see how to customize notifications here: Notifications on your Apple Watch - Apple Support


Let us know if this helps.


Regards.
