Spanish TV claims in a video his watch is stolen as he is among the crowd. But I can't see his watch on at all in any of the crowd pictures above, so perhaps he took it off before he went to shake hands as a precaution?

He is, however, wearing his watch when he first arrives to the town - seen in this picture:

Tirana. US President George Bush lost his wristwatch while he was shaking hands with Albanian citizen yesterday on his visit to Albania, Spanish agency EFE informed according to local TV channels information. Televisions broadcast a video that shows that while Bush greeting Albanian citizens, his watch disappears. Although the White House denies information that US President has lost his watch.

Watch the video from YouTube. Sure looks like his watch disappeared to me.

Could be editing/combining of several videos over a long period of time, though. Maybe.
