Abstract (en)
[origin: US2002096544A1] A watch case with an interchangeable bracelet system includes a back with a neck to which a portion of a bracelet is removably coupled. A closure element closes the neck and pinches the bracelet against the back of the case. Preferably, the closure element is a ring that is attached to the back of the case by means of a bayonet device consisting of a lug that is inserted in a mating hollow. To prevent accidental separation of the closure element from the case, a compression joint may be placed in a seat provided in either the back of the case or in the closure element. The closure element compresses the joint and frictionally prevents accidental opening. The device enables the bracelet to be changed easily without tools.
