After unpairing apple watch in xcode, I also had the issue that I was never able to see it again in Xcode until I did the following. Completely delete Xcode including deleting following files (chatgpt suggested, check before deleting) ~/Library/Developer/Xcode ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dt.Xcode.plist ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.Xcode ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices Afterwards I deactivated and activated developer mode in iphone, and started new project. Watch became visible.

I had the same issue. I reinstalled xcode, turned developer mode off and then on in the iphone, created a fresh xcode project, and the issue was solved. I was able to see the apple watch again in the xcode, which was not the case before, after i manually unpaired it. Btw some remaining xcode files i also deleted per Chatgpt Delete ~/Library/Developer/Xcode ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dt.Xcode.plist ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.Xcode ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices
