Apple Watch 3
It wasn't until a later version of iOS that you could setup an iPhone without iTunes. The same independence should come to the Apple Watch eventually, it just might take a few more versions.

And there initially was no Windows version of iTunes. The iPod's market was at first only people who already owned Macs.

I'm still waiting for my Zune to get macOS compatibility.

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”:

Or Siri dictation.

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.

You never needed a computer to set up an iPhone. You needed it for restoring and updating the software.
