Apple watch series 9 (OS 10.3) not showing up in xcode 15.1 under devices list.

When connecting my iphone (14pro with iOS 17.2.1) with a paired apple watch (series 9 with OS 10.3), it is not showing up on the devices/simulators list in xcode 15.1. Beyond unpairing/repairing the watch, restarting either iphone or watch, connecting/disconnecting the iphone from the computer or deleting xcode and re-installing xcode, any other suggestions? Under the WatchApp field it shows "no eligible device connected", however, under the console the Apple Watch does appear.

I have tried just about everything and can't get the watch to appear in Xcode. I am running all this on a MacBook Pro with Sonoma.

Thanks for any assistance!
