  • the side edges of the tapes produced in this way consist of the material of the intermediate layer, so that the multilayer structure of these tapes is immediately apparent from the outside.
  • EP-A-199 708 describes a method and a watch band in which one of the two surfaces and the side edges connecting these surfaces to the opposite further surface are predominantly made from a cover layer.
  • the further cover layer or an intermediate layer arranged between the cover layer and the further cover layer should be made of a plastic material which is in liquid or pasty shape is applied to the cover layer or the cover layers. It is also envisaged to give the plastic cover layer or intermediate layer a shape which, when an end part is turned over by 180 ° to 270 °, results in an opening in an end region of the band, so that this end part has a bearing pin which is fixed in a watch case looped around and then the end part of the tape can be connected to the intermediate layer or the further cover layer.

  • the surprising advantage of this solution lies in the fact that the production of the recesses or slots, simultaneously or in alignment with the bore of the bearing device, creates exact guide surfaces which enables the belt to be rotated relative to an object supporting the supporting bolt without constraints.
  • the adjacent slots can in particular be produced in succession by milling and / or punching and / or cutting.
