Block all calls on watch not from NumberSync'ed Phone

Is there a way to block all calls and texts that come into my watch that come to the watches number? I only have a SIM watch for the NumberSync to my phone. I am currently getting 10-15 calls and 20+ texts a day on my watch's number. I get less than 5 calls a day on my main number. It is very frustrating to have the majority of my watch notifications to be false.
