JJ and Allan, it's really not as BIG as it looks in the photo!
The anchor that is!

In this case, size does NOT matter, Richard. Those 2 pointed ends are enough to cause irrepairable damage!!

I hope we're talking about the same thing as you said you had a gold anchor?

Here's a picture of mine.

It's 18K solid gold.

My "Z" SD didn't come with an anchor but I snagged one on Eban. Was going to use it as a key chain until I saw this thread. I think now it'll just go into the watch box. Now the question is what do I get as a key ring?

No, I have the gold anchor that came only with the 18K solid Subbies. It's too light to be solid gold, I assume it's plated. Damn. I could use a $1000.00 bucks!

Yes, I have one of those light ones - definitely plated and pretty worthless..........unless you can prop it up gracefully against something as beautiful as this!!
