I have a pair of Carharts that doesn't have a watch pocket ( not the pair in this pic ) so this is my work around . I know not many use a pocket watch anymore and I would guess some day you won't be able to find any brand still sewing them in their pants ......... the joy of getting old and outdated :(

What a grand idea!  I carried a pocket watch for many years. It worn out and no one could fix it. Finding pants with  watch pockets did also become a challenge. 
I love you idea. And you presentation is excellent!

Thank you ! 

I have carried one most of my life , a couple of nice ones , and was quite hard on them back when I was working . Learned pretty early on not to get to many $$  into one but this one which cost under 50 bucks will have to be repaired whatever the cost ;) Daughter bought it and then engraved it  herself so you see I just have to hope it doesn't break ........

 

and yes she can spell , it's just what she called me as a toddler ( Diddy for Daddy ):lol:
