I'm afraid that this is incorrect.

 

Apple states that the 12W iPad USB Power Adapter, for example, is compatible with Apple Watch. Continuous use of this power adapter - as opposed to a 5W adapter - would not cause any damage to your watch's battery. The charging process will only involve drawing as much current from the adapter as the watch needs.

 

See under "Compatibility" here:
