Same issue for me as well and my ability to test on a real device is totally blocked and has been actually since some time back in Nov.! Xcode 26.3 iOS 26.3.1 watchOS 26.3 Watch was paired to Xcode but would never connect due to the same tunneling errors mentioned by others. After unpairing via Xcode Devices and Simulators the watch cannot be repaired even though I have unpaired and repaired it with iPhone and unpaired and repaired the iPhone to Xcode. NOTHING will cause Xcode to find the watch again. Damn it Apple this crap has been an ongoing issue since Xcode 26.0 How do you have 3 dot releases and not fix something like this?! Might have gotten the watch re-connected via another suggestion in higher up in this thread to connect mack to iPhone via Hotspot. I can see the watch again in Devices and Organizers, but the setup is taking foreeeeeevvverrr so not sure what happen when I switch the mac back to regular wifi.
