Definitions

  • the two strands of band of the bracelet are generally fixed to the middle of the watch case by means of spring bars, which allows removal and setting place the bracelet easily when necessary, for example for the purpose of repairing or changing the bracelet.
  • the present invention therefore aims to create a wristwatch which offers the same aesthetic and safety features as those with welded bracelets, but in which the bracelet can be removed easily, without having to use special equipment.
  • the strands of the bracelet can be removed by hand, without tools, from their respective passage from the middle of the watch case, simply after having separated the part from the middle of the box that holds them in place, this separation being an operation that any watchmaker-dresser commonly performs.
  • the bracelet encased in the box in the manner thus defined obviously has the same appearance as a welded bracelet.
  • the solidity of its fixation is comparable in all respects to that of a welded bracelet.
  • the part of the box to be removed to release the bracelet is the glass, the bezel, the back, a ring or a frame, that is to say a piece that the watchmaker-dresser is notoriously used to separating from the middle of a watch case.
  • the bracelet comprises two strands of ribbon 1, 2 which are fixed to the middle part 3 of the watch case by the glass 4
  • the middle part 3 has a passage 5 (FIGS. 3 and 4) for each strand 1, 2 of the bracelet.
  • the sides 6 of these passages 5 are not parallel to each other, but separate from one another towards the inside of the box.
  • they have an inner rim 7 extending all along their upper edge, the free space of the passages 5 under these rims having a height equal to the thickness of the strands 1, 2.
  • the strands 1, 2 have a shape adapted to that of the passages 5 of the middle part 3.
  • the part 8 of these strands, which is intended to be inserted in the passages 5 goes in particular widening in the direction of the end of said strands, the width of this part 8 of the strands 1, 2 and the inclination of the edges 9 (FIG. 4) of this part being equal respectively to the width of the passages 5 and to the inclination of the sides 6 of these passages, so that in the position occupied by the strands 1, 2 in FIG. 1, their end portions 8 are engaged under the edges 7 of the flanks 8 of the passages 5, the lateral edges 9 of these end portions being applied against the flanks 6. Due to the inclinations described of the flanks 6 of the passages 5 and of the edges 9 of the extreme part 8 of the strands of the bracelet, it is clear that the strands 1, 2 of FIG. 1 cannot move away from the box under the effect of traction.
  • the described inclination of the edges 9 of the end parts 8 of these strands must continue in the part of said strands which moves away from the box. shows, at least over a certain distance, so that these strands have a part which is sufficiently narrow to be able to pass between the edges 7 of the sides 6 of the passages 5. It is therefore such a part of the strands of the bracelet which will first be inserted into the passages 5. The strands 1, 2 will then be pulled towards the outside of the box, making sure that they engage well under the edges 7 of the sides 6 of the passages 5 in which they are respectively engaged. They will thus arrive in the position shown in FIG. 1.
  • the glass 4 is fixed to the middle part 3.
  • the ends 10 of the strands of the bracelet then abut against the edges of the glass 4, which thus traps them in the passages 5 of the middle 3 from the box.
  • the embedding produced by the internal edges 7 of the sides 6 of the passages 5 (instead of making it using the glass) has the advantage of preventing the glass 4 from being moved away from the middle part 3, for example at the following a strong bending moment of one of the strands of the bracelet, which would be generated in the vicinity of the embedding point.
  • the attachment described still has the advantage, in particular in the case of Milanese straps, that the part of the strap that leaves the box retains all its flexibility, while the soldering often flowing in this part stiffens it to the point of exposing some of the braided wires of the bracelet to the risk of rupture.
  • the strands l, 2 of the bracelet are blocked longitudinally in the passages 5 of the middle part 3 by a hoop 11 surrounding the glass 4, and fixing it to the middle part 3.
  • the second embodiment differs from the first in that the strands of ribbon 12, 13 of the bracelet are embedded in passages 14 (Fig. 9) of the middle part 15 no longer formed in its upper face, but in its lower face and by the fact that it is the bottom 16 of the box which locks these strands in the passages in question, in the same way as the glass 4 (or the hoop 11) did in the first embodiment and the variant.
  • the strands of the bracelet could also be blocked in corresponding passages of the middle by an independent ring or, in the case of shaped boxes, by a frame, fixed for itself to the middle and possibly used to retain or even fix the bottom.
  • the bracelet appears securely attached to the case, without necessarily having to use an additional connecting element.
  • the aesthetic appearance of these wristwatches is quite comparable to that of the watches to which the bracelets are welded, but the bracelet according to the invention is easily removable, which allows it to be repaired or replaced, operations which are prove extremely difficult in the case of bracelets welded to the case.
  • the invention is not limited to the use of metal bracelets. To guarantee the solidity of the anchoring of the strands of the bracelet to the middle part, it is sufficient that the part of these strands which is embedded in the middle part, is rigid enough not to leave the passages 5, 14 following a traction exerted on these strands.
