SOLD Antique 8K Rolled Gold & Carnelian Spinner Watch Fob 9k We love the coiled designVictorian gentlemen tended to decorate their watch chains with fobs. Watches were worn in the waistcoat pocket, with a chain attached for easy access. The fob helped to add a counterweight so the chain wouldn't be pulled by the heavier watch. Some fobs were merely ornamental, and others held a practical purpose. The spinning feature on this fob is a clever gadget for the type of bloke who needs to preoccupy himself with busy hands!
