Abstract

The two parts of a leather watch strap are adhesively secured to flexible metal tongues integral with a metallic body mounted in an annular groove in a watch case body, for example between a crystal and back. The flexible metal tongues are, for example, of beryllium bronze inserted and soldered in slits of the annular attaching body and the leather watch strap portions are each adhesively secured to these tongues. A metal bracelet can be soldered directly to the annular attaching body.
