An Armbanduhr is a wrist watch, not just a watch. I'm sure the Germans often shorten to it 'uhr', just like the English do. Capital is short for capital city.

Capital is short for capital city.
Vacuum is also short for vacuum cleaner.
I'll grant you Aussehen - that's a single word in english. But longer than the German one.
