Pocket Watches with PC

[piperalpha]

Troglodyte,

Thank you kindly. That was a great learning experience. I’m not so familiar with the rules of society as I’ve typically been around other pipers when I’m in a kilt. I’m never disappointed with the members of forum’s willingness to share what they know.

I plan on having two vests made. One on the bias with the extra material I have from my kilt and another made with black watch Tartan. The contrast between the two Tartans in you photos is striking to me.
I’m lucky that my kilt maker is my mum. I was talking about sending the leftover material away to have a vest made. She said she could make me one if I brought my vest over. All I’ll have to buy is the buttons.

I’ll likely get the second one made when I go to Scotland. I’m going to have a bespoke jacket made by Campbells of Beauly. They can measure me for the waistcoat at the same time.

It time to keep an eye out for an old pocket watch and chain or two.
