It was not uncommon for Victorian watch chains to have a bar which also doubled as a watch key or had some other useful function, which may also go to explain why they were worn outside the waistcoat.
Aaah, I hadn't thought of that before. I always reckoned watch-keys were kept on the other half of a double albert.
