<p>[QUOTE="Gus Tuason, post: 2691928, member: 10012"]This was called a "liontine" worn by both men an women. It would anchored in a near button hole, usually in the lapel. The watch would be placed in a breast pocket and the dangle would just hang down. The whole contraption is probably GF but parts may be gold (low grade). I think that these were popular about 1890-1910. How chains were worn during these times seems to be particular to each user.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
