How do I run my application from Xcode on an Apple Watch?

I am trying to run my first WatchKit application on an Apple Watch (watchOS 7) from the latest Xcode (12.0).

I can select simulator as a destination, but I have no idea how to add my real watch to the list so I can start testing on a real device.

I have an iCloud account and it seemed sufficient to run an iPhone applications, but not Apple Watch.

How do I make it work?

I did also find I had to quit and restart Xcode after I plugged the phone in

Ok, I am not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Apart from assigning a proper Team to the Project, make sure you have your iPhone (to which the Apple Watch is paired) connected to your Mac via cable.

The "connect your iPhone using cable" was not thet obvious to me. I assumed it got the device from iCloud account.
