A flexible device includes: a functional element; a first movable element; a second movable element movably connected with the first movable element, in which a movement of the second movable element relative to the first moveable element drives the flexible device to deform.

A wearable accessory is provided along with an adjustable linkage and a functional element. In regards to the adjustable linkage, the adjustable linkage includes first and second linkage portions spaced apart from one another to define a channel therebetween. Each linkage portion includes a sidewall defining first and second openings. The second opening defined by each linkage portion includes a plurality of holes spaced in a longitudinal direction to provide sizing options. The adjustable linkage also includes fasteners extending through respective holes the second openings defined by the first and second linkage portions so as to rotatably connect a link of the accessory to the first and second linkage portions. The first and second linkage portions are separate components attached to one another by their mutual attachment to the link of the accessory.

The invention concerns a device for attaching a bracelet or strap to a watch case, the device comprising, on the one hand, a bar secured to the watch case by means of at least one horn, and on the other hand, an insert integral with the end of the bracelet, wherein the bar and the insert are complementary in order to cooperate by fitting one inside the other to form removable assembly means able to make the bracelet interchangeable. According to the invention, the bar is formed by a cylindrical arbor having at least one flat portion, the flat portion cooperating by fitting with a housing made in the insert, the housing having a substantially rectangular opening for receiving the flat portion, and the bar including a control member for pivoting the bar from a first position A, in which the insert is positioned on the arbor, to a second position B, in which said insert is locked onto the bar.

A watch strap with a plurality of quickly interchangeable, decorative plates attached to express a person's characteristic or style. The watch strap allows for the removal of decorative plates on the watch strap via manipulating a tab attached to the plates. Another variation of the invention is to depress a button, attached to the plate, beneath the watch strap. The plates may also be removably secured via a plurality of screws.

A wristlet including a first row with at least one central link, a second row and a third row disposed respectively on either side of the first row and each including at least one lateral link, a connecting rod positioned in the three aligned holes of the first, second and third rows. The lateral link is hollow and includes in its hollow an insert delimited by two external lateral walls, the connecting rod including at each end a first banking and a second banking respectively bearing on a portion of the external lateral wall when the lateral link pivots about the connecting rod so as to limit the amplitude of rotation of the central link about the connecting rod.

A Brunnian link is a link formed from a closed loop doubled over itself to capture another closed loop to form a chain. One or more beads may be assembled to a linked item formed with Brunnian links. The beads include tapered sides to provide a curved interface that corresponds with the shape of a completed linked item.
