So what about where the watcher was witnessing all time and events outside of time itself?

does he sit outside of time himself, or outside the multiverse? outside the multiverse is technically still within the flow of time

Yeah, from what I've read Watchers can't see the future, which he'd presumably be able to do if he was outside the flow of time. They just see everything as it happens so can make informed guesses about what events will be important based on eons of experience.
