A band for securing an electronic device to a user may include a monolithic band body having proximal and distal ends for coupling to a body of the electronic device. The monolithic band body may include an elastic material that is elastically stretchable between (1) a fitted mode where the electronic device is secured to a limb of the user, and (2) a stretched mode for fitting over the limb of the user.

The device for fixing a wristband to a watch middle includes a connecting element (11) for connection to a wristband (10) or a watch middle (20), at least one pin (1) able to occupy two positions, one projecting from the connecting element (11) and another retracted into a housing (11a) of the connecting element (11), and a receiving element (21) for connection to a watch middle (20) or a wristband (10), having at least one bore (21a). The fixing device includes at least one insert (5), and is designed to occupy at least two configurations: a first configuration in which the at least one pin (1) occupies a position retracted into the connecting element (11), enabling a wristband to be separated from a watch middle, and a second configuration in which the at least one pin (1) occupies a position projecting from the connecting element and is positioned in the at least one bore (21a) of the receiving element (21), the at least one insert (5) forming an interface between the at least one pin (1) and the at least one bore (21a) and/or the housing (11a) to minimize frictional wear on rotation of the at least one pin (1) relative to the receiving element (21) and/or the connecting element (11) respectively.

A portable object (1) including a case (20) having a middle (21) devoid of fastening horns and having two longitudinal cavities (110) extending in a longitudinal direction (X-X), a bracelet (30) having two ends (31), each end (31) of the bracelet (30) cooperating with a mounting interface (200) configured to removably cooperate with a longitudinal cavity (110) of the middle (21) to make it possible to mount the bracelet (30). The mounting interface (200) is one-piece and includes: elements (210) for receiving and securing one end (31) of the bracelet (30); elastic casing elements (220) for axially locking the mounting interface (200) in the longitudinal cavity (110) in the longitudinal direction (X-X); elements (230) for locking the mounting interface (200) in the longitudinal cavity (110) in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction (X-X).

Assembly screw (1) for the pivoting attachment of at least two horology components in a position of assembly, the assembly screw (1) comprising at least one guide portion (3) allowing one of the horology components to pivot, and at least one threaded portion (4) allowing it to be fixed to another horology component, wherein this screw comprises a shoulder (5) intended to come into abutment against this other horology component and a zone (10) of lower mechanical rigidity to reduce the contact pressure applied at the shoulder (5) of the assembly screw when the horology components are in the position of assembly.

A portable object includes a case having a middle, a bracelet, and an attachment system for removably securing each end of the bracelet to the middle. The middle includes two longitudinal cavities to form a slide bar. Each end of the bracelet includes a fastening head that cooperates, by sliding, with one of the longitudinal cavities to form the attachment system. The fastening head includes an end flange made of a viscoelastic material. The attachment system includes a viscoelastic fitting for locking axial movement of the fastening head inside the longitudinal cavity by the viscoelastic response of the end flange. The viscoelastic fitting is formed by cooperation of a rigid locking protrusion in each longitudinal cavity to deform the end flange upon insertion of the bracelet. The locking protrusion fits inside a recess made in the end flange to lock the axial movement of the fastening head.

A wearable object including a middle of a case, a bracelet, and a fastening system for removably securing the bracelet to the middle, the middle including two longitudinal cavities configured to form a slide-bar and receive a hooking head of the bracelet of complementary shape and configured to cooperate by sliding. The fastening system includes elastic casing elements to bolt the axial movement of the hooking head inside the longitudinal cavity, the elastic casing elements including: a rigid bolting protrusion, arranged on an inner wall of each of the longitudinal cavities, cooperating with; two obstacles arranged in the vicinity of an elastic portion of the hooking heads, the obstacles delimiting an inter-obstacle space designed to receive the bolting protrusion and form locking elements of the bolting protrusion; the elastic casing elements being configured to elastically distort the elastic portion of the hooking head during the insertion of the bracelet.

A connection structure includes: a connection pin that includes a first part and a second part between which a step is formed and that connects a first target and a second target by being inserted in an insertion hole; and a pin locker movable in a moving direction in a recess formed in either the first or second target. The pin locker has a pin engaging part that engages with the step of the connection pin and a pin insertion part. One of the recess and the pin locker has a first abutting part, and another has a first abutted part. When the pin locker is at a specific position and the first abutting part abuts the first abutted part, at least either an orientation or a position of the pin insertion part is limited such that the second part is allowed to pass through the pin insertion part.

A connecting structure includes a connecting pin, a pin catch, a biasing member, and a holder. The connecting pin has a first portion, a second portion thicker than the first portion, and a step therebetween and connects a connecting object and a connected object (objects) by being inserted into their insertion holes. The pin catch moves in a recess in one of the objects in moving directions that are not an extending direction of the insertion holes and has a pin engagement portion that engages the step. The biasing member biases the pin catch in one of the moving directions. The holder is on the one of the objects and transitions, in response to user operation, to a first state where the holder and the biasing member holds the pin catch or a second state where the pin catch is detachable from the recess.

A watch case for a wristwatch including a watch middle, at least one strut for supporting the watch middle, the strut extending beyond the space occupied by the watch middle, a device for removably attaching a watch strap to the strut. The watch case further includes a member for fixing the strut or one of the struts to the watch middle, the removable attachment device being formed when the strut is fixed to the watch middle, and the fixing member includes a device for detaching the strut from the watch middle, configured to allow release of the strut from the watch middle without using tools, the strut being removably fixed to the watch middle.

A system that transforms the APPLE WATCH®, or a similarly constructed wearable computing device, into a jewelry or wearable accessory that is adaptable to a wide variety of styles. The system includes two pins that are compatible with the device and provide multiple functionalities. The first pin has a bail that effectively turns the device into a pendant or any accessory that is desired, and the second pin has a hinge knuckle onto which other parts—for example a cover, a second bail, or a charm—can attach. When a cover is used, the first pin has the additional functionality of being an attachment point for closure. Both pins maximize unintentional interference with the device and support the device from opposing and/or pulling forces with minimal wear. The pins work in harmony to transform the device into any wearable jewelry the user desires.
