When we say see we are normally talking about things we can't avoid .

Example:I opened the curtains and saw some birds outside.
I didn't intend to see them, it just happened.

When we use the verb look, we're talking about seeing something with an intention.
This morning I looked at the newspaper – I intended to see the newspaper.

When we watch something, we intend to look at it but we're also looking at it quite intensely, usually because it's moving.

Example:I watched the bus go through the traffic lights.
I watched the movie.
We want to see it, we're looking at it intensely and it's normally moving.
