I've just started studying Japanese so I'm using Hiragana.
In the book it says
"It's 1 o'clock"
is
"いちじです"
in Japanese.
But if I want to use the form
"X はいちじです"
then what should "X" be?

Most formally, we say:
「只今{ただいま}の時刻{じこく} + は + X時{じ}です。」
To continue roughly in the order of formality, we replace 「只今の時刻」 by:
「現在{げんざい}の時刻」
「今{いま}の時刻」
「今」
Please remember, however, that just saying 「X時です。」 is completely grammatical, normal, common, natural-sounding, etc. in Japanese.
Finally, by replacing the 「時刻{じこく}」 by 「時間{じかん}」 in the phrases above, they become slightly less formal as well.
