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:

Hi
Yes - a genuine Apple iPad USB Power Adapter can be used in conjunction with the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable to charge Apple Watch.
Thanks for the great response Jonathan. problem solved
I assume you mean the wall charger (plugs into the power socket). It is possible, but using it continuously could damage your Apple Watch (not iWatch) battery. The Apple Watch is made for use with a 5V Wall Charger, Apple Watches and iPhones come with these. Hope this helps!
You're welcome! 🙂
