how to get the wake up alarm to go off while in night stand mode?

I am charging all night my S6 LTE in nightstand-mode, next to my iphone 11pro max in my night table. I have set up a wake up alarm in the new "wake up" section in the watch, then the watch shows in nightstand mode the hour for the wake up alarm. The problem is that the alarm is going off on my phone, never on my watch!. How to make the wake up alarm sound to go off in the watch, instead of on my phone?. I have followed the guides but still is not possible to get a wake up alarm from my watch!.

Are you setting an alarm on your iPhone Clock app or on your Apple Watch Alarm app?

To ensure the alarm goes off on your watch, you need to set one on your Apple Watch Alarm app ...

Set an alarm on Apple Watch

Open the Alarms app on your Apple Watch.
Tap Add Alarm.
Tap AM or PM, then tap the hours or minutes.
This step is unnecessary when using 24-hour time.
Turn the Digital Crown to adjust, then tap Set.
To turn the alarm on or off, tap its switch. Or tap the alarm time to set repeat, label, and snooze options.

Not working, the alarm sound does not go off on the watch in the nightstand, only on the iPhone at the time that the watch (and iPhone) are configured to.
