It appears that the brown hunting sporran the Prince is wearing in many of the photos is the same one dating back to the photo of him wearing it as a teenager. I'm guessing it's either a family heirloom, or one of his favorites - or maybe both.

I neglected to compliment the collector and contributors of those wonderful photographs. They are truly an incredible collection. Thanks so much for posting them.

I don't have any authoritive knowledge Terry but my guess is that he has worn a watch chain for a number of years with his scottish dress, and now it's just part of his normal accoutrements that he feels naked without. Just a guess as I said
