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?

I usually carry a Case Peanut in the watch pocket

It works well for an extra pair of earplugs!

handy for ear plugs...

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.

Good place for a pocket knife.

Nope, Gunner uses his to holster his 44 mag revolver.......

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.

It's great for a USB drive.

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.

Back when I smoked my Zippo lived there.

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.

Used to be condoms and now just lint.

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.

car key fob. smetimes a foil packet of excedrin or such.

Various screw-driver bits. I have a little Gerber knife that's a perfect fit.

I use it for my flip cell phone. I have no interest in facebook and all of the other things.

Rubbers

change pocket

+1, got one of those too.

WP - carry odds and ends, screwdriver bits, screws, nuts, etc. Like it, keeps things like bits from wearing holes in the bottom of pockets.

I don't smoke,but I do carry a lighter in the watch pocket of my jeans.

I carry change in mine

Pretty much just loose coins.
Years ago I tried carrying a pocket watch in it but somehow would always wind up cracking the crystals while working on machinery.

In my jeans, I do. Change, comes to mind.

Earplugs as a lot of other guys stated. Thought I was the only one who did that, wife is tired of getting the earplugs out of washing machine that I forget to take out of pocket. If the Watch pocket was on the left hand pocket, it would be perfect for my spare 938 magazine. On the right side, it interferes too much with my holster.
