To all whom it may concern:
Y Be it known that I, MYER KAUFMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at `Worcester, in the county of Viforcester and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful lvVatchProtecton of which the fol lowing is a specification.
This invention relates to a protector for watches, and the principal objects thereof are to provide a protecting case in which the watch can be inclosed, so constructed that the parts can be readily put together without any trouble and separated when desired to remove the watch; and also so constructed in its preferred form that the face and hands of the watch may be seen through it.
Another object of the invention is to provide a construction in which the face of the watch will appear on the outside of the protecting case when the latter is made of transparent or translucent material, and to provide the same with devices adapted to pre= vent the removal of 'the watch from the pocket either accidentally or by design Without attracting the attention of the wearer.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will appear hereinafter.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings which show a preferred form of the invention, and in which- Figure 1 is a plan thereof with a watch in position; Fig. 2 1s a front view of the outside; and Fig. 3 is a view showing the inside of the protector or case.
The protector involves a pair of members 10 and 11, each formed in such a manner as to cover about half of a watch case, so that when the two parts are put together they may contain a watch within them and protect the same from dampness, wear, and rough handling of any kind.
ln order that the two parts of the case or protector may readily be put together and taken apart, one of them is made smaller than the other and fits within the projecting flange 12 thereof. The fit is preferably made tight enough so that the two parts are held together entirely by friction.
The two parts of the protector may be made of any convenient material, such as metal, celluloid, or the like, but I prefer to form the back part 10 of metal and the front art 11 of transparent or translucent celluoid so that the face of the Watch and the hands may be seen through the latter at all times Without removing it from the Watch.
lf desired, the rear part, and in fact both parts of the case may be made of iron or steel so as to magnetically protect the watch.
YFi/'hen the front part is made of transparent material, prefer to have the numbers usually appearing on the watch face applied to the face ofthe case as shown in llig. 2. ln'this way it is onlynecessary 'to ysee the hands through the protector and in fact the inside may be cut out if desired. rhese numbers may also be applied to a metal front section for the casing when the latter is used with the interior cut out inside the circle of figures so as to show the hands. The circle of figures is so placed on the section 11 that several numerals occupy the same position thereon that they do on the watch, as for example, in Fig. 2, the case is shown as constructed for a watch having the stem projecting from a point opposite the numeral 9.
ln order to provide for holding the watch. properly in the pocket and preventing its removal without attracting the attention of the wearer, one or both parts of the casing is provided with a projecting flange 13 or 14 secured thereto, or integral therewith. This fiange may be of any desired shape, and preferably is formed integral with the material of the casing on which it is located around the opening 15 which is provided for the stem. ln this way it will be seen that the desired object is accomplished in a very simple and convenient manner, and that the projecting flange may be stamped out when the casing is made and formed of the same material.
In Fig. 3 one half of the casing is shown as having an opening 16 in the front thereof. This is adopted when it is desired to make the front of the casing of opaque material. In this case the circle of figures is placed near the edge of said opening.
Vilhile l have illustrated and described certain preferred forms of the invention, I am aware that many modifications may be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as expressed in the claims.
Having thus fully described my invention7 what I claim is l. A watch protector comprising a casing formed of two sections, one fitting within the other, and each having an opening for the stem of the watch, and an integral flange extending from a point near said opening 2 y Y n 911,657`
on each of the sections in a plane substantially at right angles to the longitudinal central plane of the casing.
2. A watch protector comprising two independent sections, removably iitting together, each having an opening for the stem of the watch, and each provided with a transverse ange near said opening projecting outwardly for preventing the removal of the protector from the pocket Without attracting the attention of the wearer.
3. A watch protector consisting of a casing comprising a section of continuous transparent Celluloid having numerals on the face thereof near the edge representing a watch face, and provided with a continuous cylindrical flange having a notch or perforation for the stem of the watch, located in the A same position with respect to said numeralsV of an attempt to remove the watch from the pocket.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
