We currently offer the following finishing options. Selecting from the dropdown choices above will provide a photo. Click on any of the following selections below for a detailed description of that finishing option.
  • Fob Only

    • For attachment to a pocket watch chain, necklace, lanyard, zipper-pull, or other accessory; or for use by itself.

  • Adapter (for large fobs only)

    • Fob is finished with a matching color silver or gold-toned solid base metal bail, or a black adapter on fobs with a copper-toned base. A small hole at the top of the bail will allow the fob to be secured to your own keychain, lanyard, zipper-pull, or other accessory with the included jump ring (jeweler's pliers suggested for assembly). A non-matching color adapter can be attached instead at no charge on request.

  • Leather Strap

    • Fob is directly attached to a 1/2" wide sturdy leather strap, measuring approx. 90mm (3 1/2") in length, offered in brown or black leather, with a silver-toned, gold-toned, or black-toned buckle. To use the fob with a pocket watch, you unbuckle and thread the top of the leather strap through the watch bow then re-buckle the strap. You can then put the watch into your pocket and the decorative plate will hang outside, enabling quick access to retrieving the watch to tell the time. These can also be used solely as a decorative piece as well by threading your belt through the leather strap and letting the fob display off.

  • Figure-8 Style Key Ring

    • Fob is attached to a sturdy base metal figure-8 key ring with solid base metal bail. The key chain segment measure approximately 48mm (2") in length. To add a key to the chain, pry open the top section of the key chain and slip your key between the 2 separated sections until it rests to the side. Then, release the key chain, which will snap back to the closed position.

  • Latch-Style Key Ring

    • Fob is attached to a sturdy base metal latch-style key ring with short base metal length of thick rope-style chain connecting the ring to the fob. The key chain segment measures 26mm wide x 65mm long. To use the key chain, open the clasp on the side of the latch-ring, attach your keys to the ring and then close and latch the clasp back together.

  • Split-Ring Key Ring

    • Fob is attached to a sturdy base metal split-ring key ring with a small base metal swivel connecting the ring to the fob. The key chain segment measures 33mm wide x 48mm long.

  • Carabiner-Style Key ring

    • Fob is attached to a sturdy smooth polish base metal carabiner-style key ring, featuring a large tapered-rectangular body with a rounded end and spring loaded latch that closes to secure keys within the ring, heavy loop at the bottom of the body supports a swivel connector. The key chain segment measures approx. 38mm long x 24mm wide.

Please note: our "matched-scale" images above show each fob paired with complementary finishing option colors, but we do offer all 3 finishing option colors (selectable in the third dropdown above) with each fob.
