I have the same experience. I have set the alarm on my iPhone and pushed the alert to my iWatch. For about a month now it has not worked. I talked to an Apple Rep today and she told me the watch alarm only works when you set the alarm on the watch itself. I am SO DISAPPOINTED that the alarm no longer works from the phone to the watch. Apple should add that feature back.

Hi


Alarms that are set on your iPhone are not synced to Apple Watch.


If your Apple Watch and iPhone are connected at the time of the alarm, then alarm alerts from your iPhone can be pushed to your watch, which can be used to snooze or dismiss them. The same also applies to any Timers that are set on your iPhone.


To enable / disable this option:


On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Clock > Push Alerts From iPhone.


Alarms (and timers) can also be set directly on your watch, in which case they operate entirely independently of your iPhone:
