This has been reported as an error here [1] ;)

The "watch/unwatch" tab is actually a link, in the form of
index.php?title=PAGENAME&action=watch&token=WATCHTOKEN.

If I open that link in a new tab, it performs the watch/unwatch action without
problems.

What I suggest here is to detect if the api is disabled, or just the writeapi,
and if that's true, let the browser follow the link instead of using the api.
We already have wgEnableWriteAPI as a JavaScript variable [2], so
mediawiki.action.watch should check it and act accordingly.
