Abstract

The bracelet of the invention comprises a plurality of elements articulated one after another. One of these elements supports a timepiece and the others form the links of the bracelet. The elements are fitted into one another end-to-end and held together by means of two non-extensible flexible ties passing via channels formed in each of the elements and situated on either side of the longitudinal axis of the bracelet. The bracelet further includes at each extremity thereof a terminal piece provided with means for fixing the flexible ties. The elements may be formed from a synthetic material reinforced with carbon fibres and the ties from a synthetic material impregnated with graphite.
