I really like the alarm feature on my jawbone as it just vibrates on my wrist with no sound emanating. Therefore no one else is disturbed. I changed the timing of charging my apple watch yesterday so that I would be able to wear it overnight and I used the alarm icon on the watch. I was disappointed when at the appointed time, the watch vibrated (nice) but also emitted a sound which woke up my partner. Darn it!
Apple Watch
In the apple watch companion app there should be an option to adjust notification settings/sounds.
You can put your watch on silent directly from the watch. Swipe up to bring up Glances. The glance farthest to the left has the options to put the Watch on Airplane mode, DND, silent.
See the owners manual:

I had already poked around there and unfortunately there is nothing that speaks to the alarm feature. I don't want to silence the other notification alerts.
Thanks anyway.
Hi Meg: Are you saying to do this each time I set an alarm? And then take the silent feature off as part of getting up? Okay, I can try that. Thanks very much.

It's all or nothing. However, it seems logical to me that, if you don't want someone disturbed by an alarm, you also wouldn't want them disturbed by the rest of the noises the watch can make. It's very quick to toggle on and off.
Best of luck.
how can I put the apple watch alarm on vibrate only?
