Calls to iWatch Instead of iPhone

I have a new iWatch (Series 8) that I have paired with my iPhone 12 Pro Max, but I cannot hear a call on my iPhone - only my iWatch. What can I do to change the call sound back to my iPhone?

When Wrist Detection can tell that your Watch is on your wrist and unlocked, you will receive all notifications, including calls to your Watch. If you are wearing your Watch and have your iPhone in your pocket or nearby, then you can just pick up the call on there, even if it rings on your Apple Watch. If it is vital that the sound plays on your iPhone, then simply not wearing your Watch when you expect the call is the best way to go about this. Apologies.
