  • This watch movement can be an electronic movement, a mechanical movement or a combination of two such movements.
  • the watch case that encloses the watch movement is not affected by the addition of the bracelet according to the invention that allows one or more electronic functions to be performed.
  • the watch case thus retains intact its aesthetic, sealing and horometric properties while offering its user, through the addition of the bracelet according to the invention, additional electronic functions.
  • the bracelet If the bracelet is worn or if the power source it contains is exhausted, it can be easily exchanged for a new bracelet.
  • the source of electrical energy can also be rechargeable. It is also conceivable to make bracelets arranged to perform different electronic functions, which leaves the user the opportunity to choose the bracelet that offers the electronic function that corresponds to his needs, or to buy several different bracelets simultaneously.
  • the fact that the printed circuit sheets are arranged in the two strands of the bracelet and that these printed circuit sheets are also electrically connected together allows the choice to increase the number of electronic components. housed in the bracelet and thus to increase the number of electronic functions made available to the user, or to optimally distribute the electronic components between the two bracelet strands.
  • the present invention proceeds from the general inventive idea which consists in associating with a watch case containing a watch movement preferentially but non-limitatively mechanical a bracelet in the thickness of which are housed the electronic component or components necessary for the execution of at least one electronic function. Thanks to these characteristics, it is possible to keep unchanged the aesthetic appearance, the mechanical properties and the horometric qualities of the watch case while adding one or more additional electronic functions that will make it possible to transform such a watch into a connected watch.
  • the present invention is particularly interesting in the case where one is dealing with a mechanical movement because it preserves the emotional aspect of such a mechanical movement while increasing the range of services that such a watch is able to render to his user.
  • the figure 1 is a perspective view of the bracelet according to the invention.
  • this bracelet comprises a printed circuit sheet 2 formed of a first printed circuit portion 4 connected to a second printed circuit portion 6 via a middle portion 8 which comprises means for ensuring the electrical continuity between the first printed circuit portion 4 and the second printed circuit portion 6.
  • the median portion 8 could be separated from the first and second printed circuit portions 4 and 6. In this case, however, it would be necessary to provide additional means of electrical connection between the first printed circuit portion 4 and the middle portion 8, as well as between this middle portion 8 and the second printed circuit portion 6, which is not necessarily very convenient. Therefore, according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the first printed circuit portion 4, the middle portion 8 and the second printed circuit portion 6 are made in one piece.
  • the middle part 8 will thus also consist of a portion of printed circuit sheet on which will be structured the electrically conductive track or tracks for ensuring electrical continuity between the first and second printed circuit portions 4 and 6.
  • the median portion 8 of approximately annular shape, is formed of two arches 8a and 8b which define an outer diameter substantially corresponding to the outside diameter of a middle part of a watch case 12 which is intended to be disposed above the middle portion 8 with the interposition of an insert 14 between the watch case 12 and the middle part 8.
  • This insert 14 comprises a rigid ring 16 whose geometry is similar to that of the median portion 8 and which is fixed on this middle part 8 by any suitable means such as gluing.
  • This rigid ring 16 gives the middle portion 8 rigidity and mechanical strength and serves as a seat for the watch case 12. It is understood that, because of its ring shape, the middle portion 8 leaves the bottom of the watch case visible. 12.
  • the watch case 12 contains a watch movement 18 which causes a set of hands 20a hours and minutes 20b. These hour hands 20a and 20b move over a dial 22 and are covered by an ice 24.
  • the watch movement 18 housed in the watch case 12 can be of any type. It can be a purely mechanical movement, or a purely electronic movement, or even an electromechanical movement. The mechanical or electronic nature of the watch movement 18 is in fact of no importance for the purposes of the present invention since the watch case 12 is completely independent of the bracelet 1 according to the invention and the addition of such a bracelet 1 does not require any modification of the various components housed in the watch case 12.
  • the present invention is of interest especially in the case where the watch movement 18 is a mechanical movement.
  • the addition to a watch case 12 enclosing such a purely mechanical watch movement 18 of a bracelet 1 according to the invention makes it possible to offer the user novel electronic functions without in any way altering the aesthetic appearance, the qualities mechanical and sealing of the watch case 12.
