Can you choose a particular Gmail account for notifications?

I have a few different Gmail email addresses/accounts. I would like to choose just one for for notifications but can't seem to find an option anywhere to do so. Think this is possible? Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I've tried that and I only get the option for "Gmail" not an option to choose just one of my Gmail accounts but a ALL my accounts. I would like the option to choose just one of my accounts from which to receive notifications.

In that section in the Settings, select the individual email address and you will get additional notification options for that specific address.

Then set the others to have no notifications (if that's what you desire).

@SwitchBeach Hi - I'm not seeing that option anywhere. What "settings" section are you describing? Is it on the watch, on the phone or on the watch app on the phone? Thanks

@Bigeric23 - Thanks - I have two different Gmail email addresses with different names so I think they do have different names already

Hi Ledsteplin - When I do that I just get Gmail as an option not firstaccount@gmail.com or secondaccount@gmail.com. I would like to just have firstaccount@gmail.com come through with notifications not the other. Thanks but I'm not sure I can do what I'd like yet. Perhaps after an update?

I was just showing where to set up a Gmail account for notifications on the phone. Is there something else you have to do?

They don't - you just get a generic "Gmail" as a selection

Is it whatever you use as your default email account on your phone?
My default is Gmail. But I also have Gmail2 and several other email accounts.
