If you have Wrist Detection enabled, your watch should never be locked when it's on your wrist. Check, in the Watch app on the phone, Passcode>Wrist Detection. Is it own.


Or are you really asking about whether or not the screen is dark? Which model watch do you have? If you have an Apple Watch 5 or later, it supports Always On Display meaning, if you have that enabled, the screen never goes dark. You can check your settings in the Watch app on your phone under Display & Brightness.
