Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a watch intended to be mounted on a support in a removable manner, comprising a watch case and a removable attachment device, independent and arranged to hold the watch case in an opening provided on the support, the box watch case comprising an upper part, on the dial side, and a lower part comprising the bottom, said lower part being arranged to be housed in the opening of the support and being of smaller dimensions than those of the upper part to form a plane peripheral shoulder.
  • Such a watch is described for example in the patent FR 1 557 197 .
  • the attachment of the watch case to the bracelet is achieved by a ring whose inner face is adjusted to the diameter of the cylindrical side face of a bottom cap forming the main element of the box.
  • the ring is fixed to the bottom-cap by hunting. Hunting has the disadvantage of making it difficult for the user to remove the ring to separate the bracelet from the watch case, particularly for a user with little strength.
  • the bracelet change is not easy.
  • the ring may not remain fixed on the box to hold the bracelet. The whole is then likely to disassemble easily.
  • Licences US 4742503 and EP 0379540 describe devices for assembling a bracelet to a watch case removably by means of a ring or a ring to easily change the bracelet.
  • the ring or ring appear visibly around the watch case, which affects the aesthetic appearance of the watch.
  • Requirement EP 0758767 describes a device for assembling a bracelet to a watch case removably by means of a ring integral with the bracelet.
  • a ring integral with the bracelet.
  • Each bracelet that the user has to change the appearance of his watch must be equipped with a fixing ring, which increases the cost of the set.
  • the ring is mounted around the box on the side of the dial, so that it appears visibly around the dial of the watch, which affects the aesthetic appearance of the watch.
  • the invention particularly aims to overcome the various disadvantages of known devices for removably attaching a bracelet to a watch case.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a device for fixing a watch on a support for changing the support or watch, respectively simply and quickly, without tools and without effort.
  • the invention also aims to provide a device for fixing a watch on a support allowing sufficient support of the support on the watch case preventing the watch case from falling in case of shocks while allowing easy disassembly of the support without damaging it.
  • the invention also aims to provide a device for fixing a watch on a support for not changing the shape and appearance of the watch.

  • the locking means may comprise at least one rib provided on the inner wall of the inner flange, said rib being arranged to cooperate with at least one corresponding groove on all or part of the periphery of the lower part of the box.
  • the locking means may comprise at least two ribs provided on the inner wall of the inner rim disposed symmetrically with respect to a transverse axis of the fixing device and separated by a zone without rib. This makes it possible to improve the flexibility of the fixing device and to facilitate its assembly / disassembly.
  • the inner rim may have at least one cut-out along its free edge.
  • the inner flange may have at least two cuts along its free edge and arranged symmetrically with respect to a longitudinal axis of the fixing device, said cutouts being provided substantially at the level of the zones without rib. At least one space without rib can also be provided on the inner wall of the inner rim between a rib and a cutout. This makes it possible to further improve the flexibility of the fixing device and to facilitate its assembly / disassembly.
  • the flange may be extended by at least one outer flange projecting towards the box and arranged to form with the flange a housing for receiving the support.
  • a cutout can be provided between the flange and the outer rim.
  • the support may be a bracelet.
  • the force applied to the flange to unlock the fastener is applied by pulling the strap according to a force substantially perpendicular to the flange and directed outwards, allowing easy separation of the fastening device of the watch case.
  • the bracelet 2 has a central opening 3, of oval shape, defining two longitudinal zones 2a, 2b and two transverse zones 2c, 2d.
  • the bracelet can be made of any material, such as for example leather, silicone, fabric, possibly comprising an interior reinforcement.
  • the watch comprises a watch case 4 comprising an upper portion 4a, located on the dial side, and a lower part 4b comprising the bottom 5 of the box 4.
  • the part 4a contains for example a clockwork movement, an orifice being provided for the introduction of a winding stem terminated by a crown 6.
  • the lower part 4b may have a housing 7 for receiving a battery.
  • the lower part 4b has dimensions lower than those of the upper part 4a to form a plane annular peripheral shoulder 8 whose role will be described below.
  • the dimensions of the upper parts 4a and lower 4b of the box 4 are such that only the lower part 4b is housed in the opening 3 of the band 2.
  • the thickness of the lower part 4b is greater than the thickness of the band 2.
  • the watch 1 also comprises a removable fastening device 10, independent and arranged to ensure the removable attachment of the watch case 4 on the bracelet 2.
  • the fixing device 10 comprises a flange 12 having a central opening 14 and an inner rim 16, projecting substantially perpendicularly to the flange 12 in the direction of the box 4, and delimiting said central opening 14.
  • the dimensions (“diameter") of the central opening 14 and the height of the flange 12 and the inner flange 16 are chosen so that the lower portion 4a of the box 4 is housed in said central opening 14.
  • the dimensions (Diameter) of the flange 12 and the inner flange 14 are chosen so that on the one hand the inner flange 16 is housed in the opening 3 of the bracelet, and so that on the other hand the inner face of the flange 12 is at the contact of the bracelet 2 over a distance sufficient to ensure the maintenance of said bracelet 2 between the inner face of the flange 12 and the shoulder 8 in the space formed between the flange 12 and the shoulder 8.
