Both are wrong because you wanted to say that watch is expensive. In the first one, which is grammatically correct, you said "this watch is expensive."

So, to answer your question, the first one is correct if you want to say "this watch is expensive." The second one makes no sense because the word order is incorrect.

So say "that watch is incorrect," you would say, "sono tokei wa takai desu."
