How could you log into icloud with just the watch? Does it have a virtual keyboard?

You could have it set up on the apple store, or you could use your computer, or you could (one can dream) use a phone from a different manufacturer?

watchOS has “Scribble”: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206907

Or Siri dictation.

You can also use the crown.

They could make it so that the crown is used for text entry, but I don't believe any version of watchOS ever has done so yet.
