The heavy watch chain worn by England’s Prince Albert (1819-1861), soon became a status symbol known simply as the “Albert.” The Albert can be found in single and double versions. The single has one swivel clip, often called a dog clip, and a T-bar which has an additional chain to which decorative fobs and medallions are attached. The T-bar is inserted into the buttonhole to secure the chain and watch as a safeguard.
