Break Points will stop at your desired line of code thus calling it "break" point. Exemple : if you have 30 lines of codes that need to be ran by the Debugger but you only want it to stop at Line 12, it will stop at Line 12. If nothing is set, it will keep flowing until your code (0) reaches the end

 

Watch point will monitor the current variable offset you're trying to "watch". Exemple : If you watchpoint your "ammo" in a game. It will watchpoint the variable until it sees any change made and spit out the new variable that got changed.
