Fifty years ago a clothes salesman told me the pocket was useless as no one wore the pocket watches anymore. Do you use the watch pocket?

It works well for an extra pair of earplugs!

Yes, wrist watches are forbidden in my work environment. Food manufacturing and packaging, as are cell phones. So you will see a few pocket watches.

Some of them will hold 6 rounds of 44 Magnum ammo.

It is great for snagging things that are intended to go into the regular pocket and keeping them from doing so.

just cleaned out mine from yesterday.
1 pen knife
1 fired 220g fmj 45 bullet
1 machine screw and washer (need to find where on my ct 90 that goes)
my wedding ring (need to soak that in cleaner to remove grease from the rubies)
1 set of ear plugs that need to go in the trash, greasier than the ring!
lint
the big pockets are saved for stuff like screw drivers, sockets, rifle ammo and my wallet
the wife won't even start to clean out my pants before washing, makes me do it, sometimes it is like christmas, find all sorts of cool stuff in last weeks pants!

It's a good stash spot for a cigar cutter.

I still pack a pocket watch in that pocket.
Always hated wearing a wrist watch.
I was a saw filer for 42 years, and hammered saws right and left handed.
Couldn't stand a wrist watch bouncing on my wrist while hammering.

Guitar picks. I call it the "pick pocket" instead of a watch pocket. Usually have 10 or 12 in there.

I carry a pocket watch in it, often. Sometimes it holds one of those new-fangled spring-assisted
folding knives, instead.

I just bought a new hooded full zipper sweatshirt that has a small pocket in the right side pocket.
I don't know what it's for but it's a new one on me.
I'll probably just keep dirt and lint in it.
