According to People magazine, the video, shared on the band's social media accounts on Friday, was a two-minute clip set to the 1974 track 'If You Can't Rock Me', and featured various photos and videos of Watts over the years.
Earlier this month, Watts had undergone an emergency medical procedure for an unspecified condition, which was the reason he was not named for the Stones' scheduled 'No Filter' tour of the US.
