A flexible jewelry cable includes a plurality of helical links. Each link has a body that extends helically about a central axis of the link. Each link includes a protrusion extending from an inner surface of the body at or near ends of the body. Each protrusion defines a through hole that is coaxially aligned with the body. The body defines a female recess on the inner surface of the body, each recess corresponding to one protrusion. The recesses are at or near the ends of the body. One recess of a first one of the links is configured to receive one protrusion of a second one of the links and align the hole of the received protrusion with the hole of one protrusion of the first link. The cable includes a string extending through the aligned holes of the protrusions of the links.

Jewelry with non-precious metallic core and process for producing, comprising an outer layer (10) and an inner core (50), a melting temperature of the inner core (50) is higher than that of the outer layer (10), consequent to a synchronous position of an outer markers (12a, 12b, 12c) and an inner markers (52a, 52b, 52c), the outer layer (10) engulfs the inner core (50) with a prescribed thickness dimension (44) all around; mechanically moving, flexing and load bearing part of an active jewelry are made of non-precious metal, the outer layer (10) is made of a precious metal like gold, silver, platinum and the like; while the inner core (50) is made of a non-precious metal like steel, titanium and the like, the jewelry article (100) is studded with diamonds and precious stones. The jewelry article (100) may be an array of closed links (110).

A connection lock (100) for connection with a watch bracelet. A body portion (110) of the connection lock includes a receiving cavity (111), at least two sliding connection portions (112) and a connection opening (113). The receiving cavity (111) is enclosed by peripheral borders of the body portion (110) to receive a spare length of flexible tube or cable (400), a side border for connection with a bracelet strap (220) provided with a receiving groove (221) being provided with a notch (114) capable of matching the receiving groove (221), so as to enable the flexible tube or the cable (400) in the receiving cavity (111) to pass into the receiving groove (221) from the notch (114). The at least two sliding connection portions (112) are respectively arranged at lower edges of two opposite side borders of the body portion (110). The connection opening (113) is arranged, adjacent to the notch (114), in a side border of the body portion (110) perpendicular to the sliding connection portions (112). When an external fitting (300) connected to the flexible tube or the cable (400) is slid and connected to the sliding connection portion (112) of the connection lock (100) via a sliding portion (310) of the external fitting, a connection portion (320) of the external fitting (300) is slid in from the connection opening (113) such that the connection portion (320) is connected to the flexible tube or the cable (400), facilitating mounting of the external fitting (300) to the watch bracelet assembly (200) or dismounting of the external fitting (300) from the watch bracelet assembly (200).
