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.
