Abstract (en)

An adjustment element (6) in the shape of a U is articulated on a part (5) of a fastener (4, 5). The median part (8) of this element (6) is flat. It is on this that an end (2) of the bracelet is placed, the other end of the bracelet being fixed to another part (4) of the fastener (4, 5). The flat median part (8) is parallel to the fastener (4, 5) and distant from the rear face of the fastener by a distance equal to the thickness of the bracelet. The end (2) of the bracelet engaged on the adjustment element (6) is thus wedged between this element (6) and the fastener (4, 5). Projections (12) are provided on the adjustment piece (6) in order to interact in an adjustable manner with corresponding depressions existing between the links of the bracelet (2). A sprung small bar (7) acts, on the one hand, as a connection and a pivot between a part (5) of the fastener (4, 5) and the adjustment piece (6) and, on the other hand, serves to clamp and immobilise the bracelet (2) between this part (5) and this element (6). This arrangement has the advantage of concealing the end part (11) of the bracelet from view, it being masked by the fastener when it is closed. <IMAGE>
