Watch fob
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the Doctor Who item, see List of Doctor Who items.
A Watch fob is a medallion or ornament attached by leather strap or chain to a pocket watch to assist in locating and removing the watch from a pocket in clothing. Some were originally coded or numbered to assist in return to the owner.
Watch fobs became popular when men's watches were predominantly carried in the pocket, and are still used today, especially by nurses.
The term is also used to refer to ornaments hung at the end of such a ribbon or chain.
