Interesting EK Dress Medal

[KC1]

Here is another interesting WWI EK dress medal from my fathers collection. It looks as if this could be worn on almost any wear but I wanted to get some more perspective on this piece as I have not seen this before. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks -

Your piece appears to be a watch fob. In the early days years of
the war National patriotism was very high and the iron cross could
found almost everywhere. These pieces are not rare but they
are collectable and make a nice addition to any Ek collection.
