"Not on my watch" is a response to a statement. It basically means, "That wont happen while I am here." Some examples would be:
Little brother: "I want to go outside."
Older brother: "Not on my watch. You cant go outside until Mom and Dad get home."
or
Student: "The other students are going to make fun of me during class"
Teacher: "Not on my watch. I will make sure they behave."

The term comes from navy lingo where sailors would spend four (or 8 or 12) hours on watch and then would be off-duty for some time while others would take their place on watch. So as @CarlosDgardener stated in effect with his excellent examples, it means It's not going to happen while I'm on duty (or in charge, if you are the officer of the watch).
