the second one, John Watson's t-shirt, is Correct. According from what you said, John Watson is a person, so, we should regard this person"John Wastson" as a integrative part, That mean, you can treat the name as a one word. But you can say ‘ John's T-shirt" or " Waston's T-shirt" as well. Cause John can stand for "John Waston" this person. Waston, is as the same to "John". Hope my explanation can make you clear to this question.

"John Watson's t-shirt" is correct. If you write "John's Watson t-shirt", it means that John (second name unknown) has a t-shirt, which has a picture of the doctor-friend of Sherlock Holmes.
