I dunno about the correctness of it, but I've always worn mine the way the feller in the pic is, but I carry the watch in my right vest pocket.

- How would these be worn?
- Do any of the folks here wear them?

Thanks...

Feraud said:A double Albert style chain might look a bit busy worn through a lapel buttonhole. There will be two chains dangling around.
Feraud said:If the watch has been in your family for four generations I think it is plenty special.
Keep in mind in this day and age wearing a pocket watch with a chain is viewed as flashy by most people. The choice to wear one is making some statement...
Ethan Bentley said:I know exactly what you mean, I often get the "are you a barrister?" comment when wearing a pocket watch. Perhaps that's what comes from frequenting a bar near the Crown court....
