PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Watch Pocket Protector.
I, JOHN PITT BAYLY, of 18 Fulham Place, Paddington, W., in the County

communication to me from abroad by Arthur Drake, of Pension Tewfik, Cairo,
Egypt, Dental Student,) to be as follows:-
My invention relates to an improved watch pocket protector, for safeguarding the
watch against pickpockets, and is intended to be worn sewn in the top of the
pocket by a ring and holes for that purpose.
This invention consists of a metallic clip of a long V shape with a ring at or
near the bottom of the V and each end perforated. The watch chain is passed
between the two arms, so that when the chain is pulled from outside of the
pocket it is forced down the bottom or narrow part of the protector and thus
prevents the watch being taken.
