Black Screen Output in Apple Watch app

I created a simple Apple Watch app in Xcode 6.2 to show a label displaying just "HELLO". But when the watch app is run,the watch screen appears,but it is completely BLACK. How to recover from this ? What are the general procedures to be followed while running an Apple Watch application?

- (void)awakeWithContext:(id)context {
       [self.watchlbl setText:@"Hello"];
        [super awakeWithContext:context];
    }

Is anything wrong in this initialisation? I have also initialised the label in the storyboard.

I was selecting iPhone 6 (6.2) the Watch App would not start, switched to iPhone 6 (6.3) and it worked.

First, always make the call to [super awakeWithContext:] before everything else.

Second, you might put your code into the willActivate method:

- (void)willActivate {
    [super willActivate];
    [self.watchlbl setText:@"Hello"];
}

EDIT

Also, make sure to use the right target in the XCode menu - the WatchKit App has to be started - like so:
