[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 9758295, member: 111"]Please forgive me, I have a sinus headache and am barely functional, so having a hard time following the watch bow and jump ring thing, but can say that if the watch was oddly attached with the jump ring to that bail on the left, it didn't belong there. Typically, that's where a T-bar would be attached, and there's no reason for the jump ring to be on the bow, it would hang from the dog clip (your hinged and threaded form is fairly uncommon) at the lower right in your first pic. Here is a vest chain of somewhat similar form with toggle bar present (but no charm): [ATTACH=full]479800[/ATTACH] [URL]https://www.etsy.com/listing/1133036867/antique-gold-filled-watch-chain-fancy?ref=cart[/URL] ~Cheryl[/QUOTE]
