Viewer, part of the year (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eye

'viewer' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'part of the year' is the wordplay.
'part of' indicates a hidden word.
'EYE' is hidden in the letters of 'the year'.

(Other definitions for eye that I've seen before include "Keep watch on" , "Light-detector" , "Viewer" , "View" , "Look at with interest" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
