Additionally, the watch band can provide a smooth transition from the size and/or shape of the housing to a size and/or shape of a continuous section of the watch band. Additionally, the watch band can conceal portions thereof other than the braided strands when connected to the housing of the watch.

A lock mechanism includes a chain component and a lock connector component. The chain component has a head portion at one end. The lock connector component has a button portion, an accommodating space, and an opening disposed on a side adjacent to the button portion, wherein the opening space connects to the accommodating space. When the button portion is operated in a pressed state, the button portion is configured to block the head portion from entering or exiting the accommodating space via the opening. When the button portion is operated in a depressed state, the button portion is configured to allow the head portion to enter or exit the accommodating space via the opening.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a toy knitting device and a knitting kit including the toy knitting device and a breakaway clasp. The knitting device comprises a knitting body having an interior chamber in which a needle holder is rotatably coupled to the knitting device. The needle holder comprises a plurality of needles configured to move up and down the side of the needle holder as the needle holder rotates to grasp a knitting strand being fed into the interior chamber of the knitting body.

In some examples, a portion of an elongated member of a jewelry article, such as a necklace chain, is couplable to a terminal extending from one of the shell pieces.

A clasp for a fancy bracelet comprises a body (1) having two opposite sides to which respective ones of the ends of the bracelet come to be fastened. The body of the clasp is configured as two complementary portions (1A, 1B), each of which forms one respective side of the clasp, and holding together by a magnetic effect. Each portion of the clasp has a groove in its fastening side for fastening to a respective end of the bracelet, which groove is a groove (3A, 3B) partially closed with undercutting, and extends longitudinally between two groove ends along the fastening side.

A quick release system for an interchangeable watch strap on a clasp, the quick release system including an end link for securing the watch strap on the clasp, the end link including a body and two lateral end piece placed on each side of the body, a first lateral end piece being in one piece with the body and a mobile end piece, able to slide away from the body, a first bar including a first end being fixed to the first lateral end piece and a second free end cooperating with a bore of the mobile end piece; a second bar extending from the first end piece, including a first end able to slide inside the first end piece, and a second end articulated to the mobile end piece; a retaining stem arranged coaxial and fixed to the second bar.

A watchband can comfortably secure an electronic device to a wrist of a user. The watchband can include a base having a contact surface opposite an engagement surface and an engagement ribbon forming loops on the engagement surface of the base for receiving a hook of a buckle. The engagement ribbon can be interwoven with the base to provide secure anchoring for the hook within one of the loops. The woven portions of the watchband can be securely coupled to end structures, such as the buckle, retaining rings, and/or a connector. The watchband provides adjustable lengths to accommodate different fit configurations as desired.

Strap (1) comprising: a strand or a plurality of links (31b) of a first type; at least one connecting element (7b) connected inseparably to a strand or link of the first type; at least one adjusting link (32) which is intended to be connected to a watch case (2) or to a clasp and which can be connected separably to a connecting element; the at least one adjusting link including a button (6B) for locking and/or unlocking the connection to a connecting element.

A modular accessory apparatus includes a body component and a housing component. The body component has a first end and a second end, wherein the body component has a curvature such that a cap forms between the first end and the second end along the direction of extension of the curvature, and the first end has a connector. The housing component modularly couples to the connector. The housing component has a housing body, a coupler component, and a gateway block. The housing body has an opening, and the coupler component is disposed in the housing body. The gateway block is disposed in the opening, wherein the gateway block has a through-hole corresponding to the coupler component. The coupler component receives the connector via the through-hole, and the through-hole of the gateway block limits the displacement movement of the connector along a coplanar direction to the direction through the through-hole.

Connecting device allowing a releasable connection between a bracelet strap and a folding clasp including at least two articulated arms and two fastening portions capable of reversibly cooperating with each other. The connecting device includes a first connecting piece capable of being secured to the free end of the bracelet strap and a second connecting piece capable of being mounted on the fastening portion. The first connecting piece and the second connecting piece are configured to reversibly cooperate with each other between a first, open position allowing separation of the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece and a second, closed position in which the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece are locked together.
