WRISTWATCH

The present invention relates to a waterproof wrist watch, especially the attachment of watch straps to this wristwatch.

According to utility model no. 80 30 029, it is known to insert the watch strap into the correspondingly shaped joint between Use the lower part of the housing and the upper part of the housing. It gets jammed and hooked there. For reasons In terms of economy, it is desirable to have a basic model of a watch case with different types of watch straps to provide so that different looking wristwatches are offered using only one model can.

According to the invention, the wristwatch is characterized by such a design of a recess provided for each watch strap half, preferably in the lower housing part Recording of the watch strap that despite complete integration of the watch strap with the case by separating Upper and lower case, the watch strap can be removed from the case and various other watch straps can be used in the recess.

The one on two opposite sides in the lower part of the housing provided = recess has the shape of a stretching over almost the entire width of the outer wall of the lower part of the housing elongated incision extending into the interior, the bottom surface of which corresponds to the angle of departure of the Watch strap is inclined, and the side runs out in bulges in such a way that cheeks stop on both sides.

When using a metal watch strap with fine links a hard profile wire is inserted or glued into the last link of the two hinge pins, the protrudes slightly over the width of the watch on both sides and behind the cheeks of the one provided in the lower part of the case Recess engages.

When using a Milanaise watch strap is a hard one Wire soldered to each end of the tape, which protrudes slightly over the tape on both sides and behind the cheeks of the engages in the recess provided in the lower part of the housing.

A leather strap can be used just as well in the wristwatch for this type of fastening of the watch strap Metal bands. According to the invention is on the leather strap hard metal part inserted into each end of the tape that Somewhat protrudes beyond the bandwidth on both sides and behind the cheeks of the one provided in the lower part of the housing Recess engages.

The hard metal part inserted into the leather watch strap ends consists of a thickness of only a few tenths of a millimeter Stainless steel sheet, which is approx. 2-4 mm long, corresponds to the width of the watch strap and on its two outermost ones

• I · ·

Ends two thorn-like appendages that protrude on both sides slightly over the bandwidth and behind the Grip the cheeks of the recess provided in the lower part of the housing.

When using a stretchy metal watch band like it for example under the brand name "Jlxoflex" is known, engages in each case the last upper watch strap link of each transmission end in the recess in the lower part of the case one, and one hard profile wire pushed straight through the last upper strap link, which protrudes slightly over the bandwidth on both sides, engages behind the cheeks of the one provided in the lower part of the housing Recess.

The method of fastening the watch strap according to the invention between the upper part of the enclosure and the lower part of the housing an effortless exchange of one watch strap for another, which fits into the wristwatch just as harmoniously inserts. Since only the upper part of the housing has to be separated from the lower part for replacement, a different watch strap can even be made by a non-professional Roann can be used without special aids.

The features of the invention are based on the figures Watch explained. As exemplary embodiments show schematically

end.

The wristwatch consists of a designed as a pot, the clockwork 1 with dial 2 and pointer 3 (for analog display) receiving lower housing part 4, the Uhrqla.s 5 with the interposition of a sealing ring 6 pressed by the upper housing part 7, which is designed as a frame, by means of screws 8, 8 'or other holding structures will. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, one of the upper part of the housing is used to close the housing 7 her hollow screw 8 with thread inside and inserted into a corresponding through hole a threaded screw 8 'inserted into a corresponding through hole from the lower part 4 of the housing against one another screwed. There is a spacer ring 9 between the watch glass 5 and the dial 2 in the lower part of the housing 4, an elastic element 10 is inserted, on which the clockwork 1 rests. All parts are con above laid on top of each other in a springy manner. The watch strap 11 is in the Parting line inserted between lower housing part 4 and upper housing part 7.

To accommodate the end of the watch strap half 11 is preferred the lower housing part 4 with an almost over the entire width of the outer wall of the; Housing lower part 4 Reaching recess 12 provided (Fig. 2), which ends on its sides in bulges 13,13 ', the such are designed that to the outside of the lower housing part 4 cheeks 14,14 * remain. The floor area the recess 12 is accordingly deir. Departure angle of the Watch strap 11 inclined. In this recess 12 the Inserted at the end of the watch strap half 11. In the last link 16 of the watch strap half 11 is a depending on the material Hard profile wire 17 inserted or glued in (e.g. in metal fine-link watch straps), or it is a hard one Wire soldered to the end (e.g. with mesh cords).

If a stretchable watch strap is inserted into the watch, the last upper watch strap link engages through it hard profile wire is inserted transversely into the recess 12 in the lower housing part 4. The air: the end of the line Attached profile wire 17 is on both sides a little beyond the bandwidth of the watch strap Π and engages with these protruding ends 18.18 "behind the cheeks 14.14" the recess 12, so that the strap half 11 does not can slip out.

In the case of using a leather strap, the At the end of the leather band, a hard metal part 19 (Fig. 3) was inserted for stiffening. This metal part 19 is made made of a stainless steel sheet only a few tenths of a millimeter thick, is approx. 2-4 mm long, corresponds to the width of the watch strap and has at its two extreme ends two spike-like projections 20, 20 ″, which protrude slightly beyond the bandwidth on both sides and when the Eandes behind the cheeks 14.14 "of the recess 12 in Grasp the lower part of the housing 4. So-a little more leeway is present when the Leöer watch band is inserted and it is therefore easier to insert, the metal part can provided with a cutout 21 at its upper edge

be f.

When closing the watch case with the frame-shaped formed upper housing part 7, as described, the underside of the upper housing part 7 rests flat the top of the lower housing part 4 and holds the watch strap 11 in the recess 12 and securely but sufficiently flexible. From the outside there is no connection or fastening means for the watch strap on Housing visible. The watch and strap form a harmonious unit.
