We are happy to offer these items in a variety of finishing options, selectable from the dropdown choices above. Our leather strap fob sets are assembled in the USA, at the PM Time Service office in Denver, Colorado, to your chosen specifications, ensuring you will receive a high quality accessory you will not find anywhere else.

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

With choice of leather strap: Fob is 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. Large fobs are attached directly to the strap, while small fobs are attached via a base-metal bar-style connector (see below photos). 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.
