WATCH

Think of something you wear on your wrist that helps you keep track of time—it often has moving parts that resemble tiny limbs.

This clue plays on the double meaning of "hands" on a watch (the hour and minute indicators) and your own hand. The word "near" hints that the watch's hands could be close to your wrist, where you might wear one. It’s a clever way to point to "watch" by blending literal and figurative interpretations of the word.
