+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+
+The \fBiwidgets::watch\fR command creates a watch with hour, minute, and
+second hands modifying the time value.
+
+.SH "METHODS"
+.PP
+The \fBiwidgets::watch\fR command creates a new Tcl command whose
+name is \fIpathName\fR. This command may be used to invoke various
+operations on the widget. It has the following general form:
+.DS C
+\fIpathName option \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR?
+.DE
+\fIOption\fR and the \fIarg\fRs
+determine the exact behavior of the command. The following
+commands are possible for watch widgets:
+
+.SH "WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS"
+.TP
+\fIpathName \fBcget\fR \fIoption\fR
+Returns the current value of the configuration option given
+by \fIoption\fR.
+\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBiwidgets::watch\fR
+command.
+.TP
+\fIpathName\fR \fBconfigure\fR ?\fIoption\fR? ?\fIvalue option value ...\fR?
+Query or modify the configuration options of the widget.
+If no \fIoption\fR is specified, returns a list describing all of
+the available options for \fIpathName\fR (see \fBTk_ConfigureInfo\fR for
+information on the format of this list). If \fIoption\fR is specified
+with no \fIvalue\fR, then the command returns a list describing the
+one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding
+sublist of the value returned if no \fIoption\fR is specified). If
+one or more \fIoption\-value\fR pairs are specified, then the command
+modifies the given widget option(s) to have the given value(s); in
+this case the command returns an empty string.
+\fIOption\fR may have any of the values accepted by the \fBiwidgets::watch\fR
+command.
+.TP
+\fIpathName \fBget\fR ?\fBformat\fR?
+Returns the current time of the watch in a format of
+string or as an integer clock value using the \fB-string\fR and \fB-clicks\fR
+format options respectively. The default is by string. Reference the
+clock command for more information on obtaining time and its
+formats.
+.TP
+\fIpathName \fBshow\fR \fItime\fR
+Changes the currently displayed time to be that of the time
+argument. The time may be specified either as a string, an
+integer clock value or the keyword "now". Reference the clock
+command for more information on obtaining time and its format.
+.TP
+\fIpathName \fBwatch\fR ?\fBargs\fR?
+Evaluates the specifieds \fBargs\fR against the canvas component.
+
+.ta 4c
+.SH "COMPONENTS"
+.LP
+.nf
+Name: \fBcanvas\fR
+Class: \fBCanvas\fR
+.fi
+.IP
+The canvas component is the where the clock is drawn. See the
+Canvas widget manual entry for details.
+.LP
+.nf
+Name: \fBframe\fR
+Class: \fBFrame\fR
+.fi
+.IP
+The frame component is the where the "AM" and "PM" radiobuttons are displayed.
+See the Frame widget manual entry for details.
+.LP
+.nf
+Name: \fBam\fR
+Class: \fBRadiobutton\fR
+.fi
+.IP
+The am component indicates whether on not the time is relative to "AM".
+See the Radiobutton widget manual entry for details.
+.LP
+.nf
+Name: \fBpm\fR
+Class: \fBRadiobutton\fR
+.fi
+.IP
+The pm component indicates whether on not the time is relative to "PM".
