They keys were probably taken from her after she was killed, the apartment had to be cleaned out of any evidence that Chandra knew Condit. So the apartment was cleaned out, but the watch was not found (this is why he dumped the watch box later), she may have been wearing it under her sweatshirt sleeve and it may have fell off without her killer or killers know it during her struggle with them. (let's hope the cops found it on the slope in the area with her remains and they are getting a positive trace on it right now, but just because she may have had it on her body that day does not prove that Condit killed her, but it sure does not look good for him, since he was caught disposing of the watch box.)
After she was killed, they entered the apartment and wiped it clean and removed what they could find linking Condit to her, the watch was never located I bet.

Her keys are probably at the bottom of Potomac. Besides... they really would not need her apartment keys as all Apartments and locks have a generic master key that will fit all the locks of certain brand name and style, most locksmiths can verify this. MasterKey sets are easy to get. It has been noted many times and verified that her apartment was so clean and fingerprint free that it looked like someone wiped the place down. But they could not find a proof of forced entry and the lobby tapes were recorded over by time they decided to check them. They entered her apartment by using Chandra's Keys or by using a MasterKey Set.

Still doesn't explain what happened to the bracelet Condit gave her. It was a fact established by two separate witnesses that he bought bracelets for Anne Marie and Chandra.

I missed this bit of news, somewhere-- it's possible Condit discarded the watch one place, and the watchbox another. How strange that would look, if he discarded both, together. Lucky for him, he was seen with the box. The perps had plenty of time to do it their way.

That uncooperative apt. manager is puzzling me-- he could let the Levys in, but he wouldn't. Why not? Rules get broken-- what's wrong with a little peak, when the parents have come so far to find their missing daughter? Why wouldn't he make sure she wasn't dropped-dead on the floor, or sick? Does anyone suspect the apt.manager is involved? In movies, the Supr. is the perp. Did he just wait it out,until Police made their move?
