Go to

Administration > Issues > Custom Fields
Scroll down to "Watchers" click configure and you will see the ID within the browser url.

That's only if you've added the add-on that provides an additional custom watcher field.

There is no watcher field.  It's a built-in function that is not written as a field, although it does have a lot in common with a "multi-user picker"

Why are you asking?
