  1. watch key

    A watch key was a small instrument historically used to wind, set the time, or adjust the regulator of a mechanical pocket watch. It had a distinctive shape, typically long with one end larger in diameter for turning, while the other would be inserted into the watch to engage its winding mechanism. Watch keys have become mostly obsolete with the advent of self-winding and electrical watches.
