That's like saying that earthquakes are a tool that can make squigly lines on paper.
A watch or clock simply measures time, like a seismometer measures earthquakes (if you didn't quite follow that earlier analogy), it is not time itself. If you pull out the batteries from your watch time does not magically stop.
