Installed Watch os5 beta 4 and didn't fix my contacts syncing issue. Still shows email addresses.

So far so good. Just updated to B4 and on watchOS 4.3.2. I haven't modified any contacts yet
 
Installing IOS 12 beta 4 solved the issue for me. (On watch os5 beta 3). I went into the phone app and it loaded after a minute.

This did it for me. Thanks!
 
Turn of contacts in icloud then turn it back on and the watch re sends them and all works fine
 
Anyone try to modify contacts either by adding, deleting, or merging/linking? If so, did they stick or clear out?
