Noun with modifying clause
Hi. Is this correct? Do we have to put the definite article before the noun "watch" to be correct?
A (The?) watch he received as a prize at the contest a few monthes ago is the one his son is using now.

In that sentence you might use either "A" or "The". If the person being spoken to knows how he got the watch, you would probably use "The". If they didn't know the story, you would probably use "A".
