I'm looking for a way to receive PagerDuty alerts without the loud interruptions of my phone. Even though I have my phone set for loud notifications and emergency bypass, I sometimes wish for a less intrusive solution that still gets my attention, ideally something that vibrates strongly enough to wake me up. I'm considering a smartwatch or a similar device for occasions like movies or when sharing a bed, so I don't disturb anyone else. Would an Apple Watch be a good choice for this?

Yes, you can get wearables that alert you for on-call events in a less intrusive way than phone alarms. I’ve heard good things about devices like the Apple Watch. Although, if you're not too sure about it waking you up, ensure you have a secondary method of alert just in case.
Any specific recommendations for models you've found effective?
