Discover MoreA heavy gage Albert chainA style of watch chain popularised by Prince Albert in the Victorian period. Traditionally this style of watch chain has a bar on one end used to attach the chain to a vest button hole. The opposite end of the chain is fitted with a swivel hook to attach the watch, which is then worn in a vest pocket. More that was made circa 1900-1910. It is termed as an “Albert” after Prince Albert, Queen Victoria’s husband, who popularised the wearing of chains across the waistcoat with seals and a “T” bar terminal. Nowadays they are worn as neck chains which look really good.
