No, of course not!

Watches don't work according to whether you are dead or alive; they just keep ticking until they run out of battery or get violently damaged.

Edit:(ryon) actually as a correction to the previous answer, one thing that started that thought was wrist wound watches, that would use your body motion, and daily shifting to wind themselves up. THus if the person can no longer shift, and wind it, it would eventually stop because nothing was winding it anymore.

Why is it said that your watch stops when you die?

It's just said meaning that it does not actually stop when you die. When watches were invented they were very valuable and and a mark of a success. It was extremely dear to the owner. Traditionally a boy received his watch when he turned 18 or whenever he became a man traditionally from a parent figure. He would keep that watch for the rest of his life, and when he died it would be buried with him. Till the 1970's there was a tradition that when a person dies you turn off his watch and bury it in the casket with him. Thus that's where the saying comes from.


What is the difference between watch and stop watch?

A watch tells you what time it is. A stop watch measures the duration of a specific event such as a person running a race; the watch doesn't just run all the time, you start it and stop it.
