Anybody else following president Bush's story about getting his watch stolen in Albania?? Apparently it was all a rumor, like a good WIS he took it off before sticking his arms in the crowds ;D And to prove it they took what might be the first ever presidential wrist shot  Can anyone recognize it   Here's a link to the story if you missed it www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8PO3CGG2&show_article=1&image=large |

I don't believe for a second his watch WASN'T stolen. I saw the video and the photos... he was robbed. No question. I heard a report that said he took it off and put it in his pocket mid-way through the walk about, just to be safe. Well... I'm guessing a pickpocket could lift his watch from his pocket faster than anyone can take it off his wrist. More obfuscation from the White House AND the media.  |

I also saw the video, he was clearly robbed. No big loss though, I think it was a Timex Easy Reader, about thirty bucks.

I hadn't seen that angle, Adam. Thanks. No problem Before I saw this, I was totally convinced I saw the guy take it right off his wrist ;D Even if they had taken it, I would say they would have been very disappointed to find out it was a timex They need to wait until Putin rolls in with his Breguet before they try that ;D |

Thanks for the second angle. I thought for sure he was robbed... where were you after Kennedy got shot? |

Kind of makes me wonder if he was truly that concerned about losing a $50 Timex I understand it's a special Timex, custom made by one of his Yale buddies who was a a top executive at Timex. It was given to him in 2001 and has the "presidential seal" on the dial. |
