Abstract

The device comprises a slide having a bottom and a pair of opposite sides. The bottom is adapted to receive the end of the bracelet to be lengthened or shortened in a slidable and adjustable manner. An eccentric shaft is pivotally connected to said opposite sides of the slide in order to lock the bracelet in its adjusted position and is provided with a screw head which can be rotated by means of a screw-driver. Reliefs and recesses are provided in order to prevent the bracelet from sliding.
