So you sent bitcoin to another watch-only address, do you own that address? If not, you can't spend the funds.– JBaczukJul 4, 2018 at 12:54

No. It was the Wallet from the support of bitcoin.org– user84906Jul 4, 2018 at 12:58

I asked if you own the address, there's a big difference. If you do not own the address, you don't have the corresponding private key to spend it– JBaczukAug 8, 2018 at 17:27

Bitcoin transactions are irreversible. You cannot cancel or reclaim them. Therefore you cannot now redirect those bitcoins to the right wallet.
Watch-only addresses are controlled only by whoever knows the corresponding private-key.
If you know who owns the private-key to the watch-only address, you can ask them to make a new payment to you of the same amount you sent them. You have to rely on their charity.
