I'd probably make your design slightly less wide, so it'll sit properly on top if you continue as you are.

I assume you're currently looking at covering straps that already exist? I think you might be better off creating your own straps. Take the design, stitch it, add some interfacing, then sew it with a heavier fabric to the back and stitch it to the watch sides. You can buy watch/belt buckle things that would work for attaching the straps together in most good craft stores.
