Watch-only wallets are, well as the name suggests, allows you to ONLY see the transactions related to that address but you can't spend it. Assuming that you have got the seed for it, go to File>New/Restore and you should see a popup, click on Next>Standard Wallet>I have a seed and enter your seed there. You can spend your coins after that.

This isn't the right place for Electrum questions, although the used wallet isn't really relevant to your question.
What you need, is the private key to the watch-only address. How did you create this address, and why did you import it? Is it even your own address?

Did you import a watch only address, or a wallet? Quote
