How to Use Watch
To use the Watch symbol (⌚) in HTML, insert the
entity ⌚ directly into your markup. The decimal entity ⌚ works in any HTML-serialised document.
In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\231A';.
In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u231A' evaluates to ⌚. In Python source, write '\u231A'.
The character encodes to E2 8C 9A as UTF-8 bytes and 231A as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 8986.
This is a fully-qualified emoji and should render with colour on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. Appearance may vary between platforms, but the underlying codepoint is identical everywhere.
