[QUOTE="Lesath, post: 161441, member: 1862"] Ah AlanJohn, A man after my own heart. The waistcoat has sadly fallen by the wayside in recent generations here, but I keep its memory/utility alive with the bib of my overalls, perhaps known as jumpers in your locale? I too utilize the watch chain, alternating between the two that belonged to my grandfathers. Nothing today compares to the style of those old chains. The only drawback is that during the hot months, I won't wear the watch and chain due to perspiration. The watches are both turn of the century Walthams that I have the good fortune of an aged jeweler friend to maintain. Nothing fancy, just filled with memories. Thank you for posting the photo, it's good to see useful things remaining in service. [/QUOTE]
