- In this video I'll share three ways to wear a pocket watch. Starting with the Waistcoat, the Trouser Watch Pocket, and finally the Breast Pocket. And, because I love origin stories, I'll share a brief history of the pocket watch as well.

Glad I found this video. I was gifted a pocketwatch after deploying to Afganistan and never used it. Now I'm inspired to use it often.
John Doe -First off, Thank you for your service. I am glad this video has inspired you to wear your pocket watch more. If you have instagram, #my1928 If you’d like to share your style.
Thank you for your service and don't forget to take it off your clothes before the washer/dryer

Thank you for your service. And keeping us safe. The watch was well deserved
Thank-you for your service
Thanks for making this. My 16-year-old son just discovered dressy clothes, and he asked me today how to wear a watch chain. Now I can show this to him.
I was lucky to have had a couple of elders who wore one when I was growing up. I thought they were cool then and still do at 67. I might get myself another one for my next birthday.
As someone who loves watches, I now have 3 pocketwatches. Love just putting it in my pants pocket, belt hooked to belt or front of pants.
Always nice to meet another pocket watch aficionado. Thanks for watching.
It’s great to know that you love watches. I really love this kind of watch. I’m going to buy one for myself. But I just wonder whether this kind of watch tells the time every single hour.
Could you please let me know about this.
Thank you and waiting for your reply.
@@utchinhtang6057 pocket watches are the same as any analog watches, so yes, you know the hour
How would you casually rock this ? Pants and hoodie ? You clip on to pants ?
I do this as well. Was gifted to me from my grandfathers passing so I wear it now
Thanks. I'm a girl, but I'm going to dress as Aziraphale from Good Omens, and I needed a tutorial like this. You helped a lot!
I am happy to hear that it was a helpful video.
Thanks for watching and have fun dressing as Aziraphale.
Youve turned my fashion around 1920s style by your videos! Thanks a munch! 🙌
this has unveiled decades of intrigue for me, about how to wear pocket watches in the 20 and 21 century. Thank you
I really hope the TH-cam algorithm picks this guy up. Amazing content!
Thank you , Barry. Welcome to the channel.
when I was a child,I wanted a pocket watch. my mom told me if I learned to tell time she would buy me one. I learned to tell time in two days. I did get the watch, that was over 60 years ago. I still prefer pocket watches to this day. Nice video
With three piece suits making a comeback, this is very timely.
Style comes in many forms, yet I am a traditionalist at heart.
You sir have earned a subscriber.
Thank you.
I did a research on pocket watch to draw my work and stumped upon your video and how lucky I am! Thank you so so much for this generous knowledge you're sharing about wearing the item onto the clothes, I really did enjoyed the history and functionality of it. Thank you again.
I did old west reenacting and you had to have a pocket watch ! But my love of them goes way back before that too Ky and my uncle who had one and worked for the RR is where my love of them started. My son got me a mechanical last year for Father’s Day I use a fob for pocket a 1/2 Albert with a vest and never never snap the cover close that is all Hollywood. I feel using one show ppl you have class and not worried about time passing by a reminder of a simpler time. Really love the vid thank you and much respect
Terrific info, loved all of the options. We'll be watching out for more videos thanks!
Great video!!!! Excellent research and thank you for keeping us gents within the rules of gentlemanly fashion!
Excellent video reference guide. Clear, user-friendly and confident demonstrations. Thank you.
I'm playing a henchman for a 20s crime boss in a Murder Mystery Dinner Theater my church is staging. I bought an accessories kit that included a pocket watch and chain. Now I know how to wear it. Thanks!
I bought a pocket watch finally in early 2017. I'd wanted one for some time. Since I was working as an over-the-road driver I figured it'd be a good idea since I sat driving most of the time. I was surprised at the number of people I'd run across who had never seen one before. I'm currently 67 and knew a few elders who carried one when I was growing up. The most surprising thing was the number of young people who couldn't tell time by it.🤷🏼♂️ I mostly wear Dickies shirts that have two pockets and I'll keep the watch in the right one with the chain going to the eyelet in the flap, across to the other pocket or to the top button hole of the shirt. Pulling it out is a really good conversation starter.
Great video. Well done for keeping old fashioned style and values alive!🎩
Thanks Sir, by the way you look so elegant.
I purchased recently a vintage silver hunter pocket watch, and I just fell in love with it! amazing!
I always used to just wrap the chain around my vest button without the knowledge of the t-bar for my timepiece. A fantastic discovery, thank you.
Good stuff! I found this channel because the google doodle about the count of montecristo got me interested in the early 1800s time period and i watched the tv series of great expectations, count of montecristo and david copperfield and i noticed how they were wearing pocket watches with waistcoats and I think that's the way that looks the best!
Just acquired a 1905 Hamilton 940 which I intend to wear. This was a great tutorial. Thank you.
Thank you for a very informative tutorial. I have just purchased a vintage Smiths pocket watch and Albert chain and was not sure how to attach it to my waistcoat , all is now clear.
John Sadler -So happy you found it useful. Enjoy your new pocket watch and chain.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for putting out these videos
Awesome video very useful like always! I really love pocket watches, planning on getting one soon.
Thanks for this video! Super helpful.
Nice. The Levi's jeans is the most replayed part, which I went back to since I missed the beginning of the part.
I’ve carried a pocket watch since my early teens after breaking numerous wrist watches . My full hunter survived a fall from my horse when out hunting so the name fits it perfectly !
I Iike my pocket watches, my dad was a keen collector and had some very vintage ones, we used to study some of the old ones and the fine movements, i wear one every day especially for work, I'm very into 1920s and 1940s fashion i always saw those era's has a time when folk were well dressed, i do get some looks from the younger generation who probably think I'm terribly old fashioned but i am, its a simpler life and i can't abide looking untidy, i do have quite a collection of pocket watches now.
I love my pocket watch and i think im hooked with this new classy bit casual look of mine
Looking for a style of exactly that description, please may you explain your style?
I got my first mechanical pocket watch but I don't know how to wear it. Thanks for this video.
Mar Nitsuga Next time you wear it, take a picture and tag me on Instagram #my1928 I would enjoy seeing how you style it.
So helpful! Thank you!
I like the first two styles.
No idea why, but I've gotten into getting one.
Excellent presentation.
Five Stars.
You now it's gonna be a great video when it starts with "in a society where" 😂
You, Sir, are reincarnated from the 1800s. I love your style.
A true gentleman.
Excellent video! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it. Welcome to the channel!
I/m a big fan of the double Albert chain.
I enjoyed your video on this topic. I just bought a new one. I own several from family members.
Thank you, Sean. Glad you enjoyed it. Timepieces passed down from family members are a priceless part of a collection. Thanks for sharing and thank you for watching.
What a nice video. I love pocket watches
i have a analog pocket watch with mechanic clockwork in gold (converted 294 UDS) and it is very beauty
Fantastic video, very pleased I've found your channel!
Feldgrau - Thank you! Welcome to the channel.
Really enjoyed your film and demonstration. I metal detect and recently found a very old pocket watch fob advertising battle axe shoes. I just put up a history lesson attempt on it if you care to watch. Thanks.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. I have always been fascinated by metal detecting and its prospects. That fob is certainly a piece to be excited about. Thanks for watching.
Awesome video, thanks!!!
Thanks for watching, Gregorybatman
It's not as elegant but I got a Disney pocket watch and I love it and now I know how to wear it. Thank you sir
Yeeee. Levi's jeans, the most popular jeans, founded by fellow Jewish brothers.
Sadly I've recently inhereted a 1970's USSR Sekonda & was unsure of how best to wear it. Would have never even considered that on most jeans, the right side inner pocket was purpose built for it. I wear jeans pretty much 365 days a year. Just wanted to say thank you for educating me.
Personally I wear it in the Breast pocket below my pocket square , but I don't tie the chain , I just pull it out when I want . Currently few people would even guess that the strap or chain belongs to a pocket watch , therefore many believe is my glasses chain , . Once I pulled up mine , was in the Titanic movie aniversary and one person said " Seemed that you liked the movie you invest in old fashion "
Best regards from Chile
Pocket watches are my favorite. ⏰ Clocks
is since 1700's
Thank you.
Now I can look like a PEAKY BLINDER 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you Sir 🤗👍
Hey! Thanks for the video. It was very articulate and graceful. Already gave a thumbs up, and subscribed, hope that encourages you to keep hustling :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Yes, more videos to come!
3:48 If I wore mine like that at a family party, 80% of everybody will despise me for proudly showing "Emo" clothing. The 10% are those whom I share the same roof with would know it's a pocket watch. Still a good tutorial, mr. Thank you
Very nice video. I have four pocket watches. Two are stem wound and two are key wound.
I just bought my first pocket watch and I fking love this thing, it's just a little cheapy thing, but it looks cool. I think I'd like to buy a couple of higher end pocket watches. Thanks for this video 🙂👍
Wow I can’t believe modern jeans still have the little pockets for pocket watches!!!
Lucky for us, they do. A tiny detail that is still relevant.
awesome video, I occasionally still wear my vintage longines gold pocket watch with Levi's in the method you described
Glad you enjoyed it. Longines makes some brilliant time pieces.
I love the juxtaposition of my casual jeans and my antique pocket watch and chain.
Personally I prefer to wear my pocket watch in the inside pocket of my jacket, it feels as if it is in a safer position and also has relatively easy accessibility. However I find this video very insightful and I appreciate your content. Good day sir.
Awesome video brother!
Thank you.
Thank You!!!!!
love your style
Thank you!
my1928 where do you buy pocket watches

Thanks for teach people how to wear pocket watches. Ive got mine ordered already but i think ill only be able to hang it on my belt because of the chain hook.
Nice Video 👍
Thomas Shelby approves 👍
Thanks for showing the video how to to wear a pocket watch and I'm also scared to watch the video and thank you
My favorite one is the belt one. This video helped because I bought a pocket watch but I dint know what's the chain for lol
Wow this is a great video with one exception you didn't mention how to wear the watch in overalls specifically Liberty overalls they have a neat little watch pocket.
Nice !!!
I really like the vest but since I don’t have one I use the belt and Jean type method
Different way to wear in Beskap, Java traditional
I have a pocket watch leather holder that fits on my belt. The watch is the holder. My pocket watch is coin silver 1912 Illinois size 16 . I have a hefty
Victorian sterling chain with a one ounce .999 silver Replika of a seated US seated. Liberty Dollar as a watch fob . The watch fob coin attached to the
Chain goes into pants front right pocket. I wear this pocket watch daily.
You know you’re here for your Call of Cthulhu LARP.
Awesome
Glad you liked it!
I came here because i bought a Black Butler pocket watch and i didn't know how to fit the belt clip because i didn't know what it was, thank you for informing me.
+blooky - Absolutely! Happy to hear that you’ve found it useful. Thanks for watching.
I have a Mickey mouse pocket watch thanks for the video I will use the 3rd option since my church is doing a spring banquet for graduation
Hello there, i found this video very educational. I bought a pocket watch but I've been curious to know how do you wear it if you are not wearing jeans? . My favorite way is to wear them on pants until I buy a waist coat
There are still a few brands of dress pants out there that have a watch pocket built in.
You should make a video regarding pocket watches from the 1920s :)
Got my dead grandfather's pocket watch for my bday
I personally like having my pocket watch in my right pocket on my vest overlapping the buttons
I have a $20 something pocket watch I bought from Ellis Island in 2014 and then I bought a cheaper $8.50 quartz pocket watch I bought off of Amazon. The $8 one ran out of battery so now I have to wear my Ellis Island watch which I love but it’s not really my style any more.
Subbed!
Can you wear it with vertical buttonholes?
How does it called on video from 4.45? Where do u get it? Can u share me the link here plz?
Thank you.
I don’t own a waistcoat but I do own a pocket watch is it proper to wear it without a waistcoat?
Hi, where are u buy the leather strap for pocket watch? Want it so bad
Thank you.
I like your pocket watch............what is the name of your watch..........is it mega???
The coat of arms in the background. Is that a custom piece of your own family coat of arms? Or an antique? If it’s a custom piece, who made it? I would love to have one of my coat of arms made just like that.
Normal People: Hand watch
Gentlemen: Pocket Watch
this feels like something we're gonna find in 10 years
Does it matter which side of the waistcoat you wear the pocketwatch on? For example, with a wristwatch, a right-handed person is more likely to wear it on their left wrist; is this the same with the pocketwatch?
Dear sir,i really enjoyed this video.,i too like my pocket watches.0
