ABSTRACT:
An integral watch band is comprised of a plurality of beam portions adjacent to one another in the lengthwise direction of the band. Each beam portion has two major faces opposed to each other and two side faces disposed between the two major faces in opposed relation to each other in the widthwise direction of the band so as to define between a pair of adjacent beam portions a corresponding pair of side faces adjacent to each other in the lengthwise direction. Each pair of adjacent side faces has a pair of arm portions protruding outwardly from the respective adjacent side faces in the widthwise direction. A plurality of elastic bridge portions are integrated with the beam portions through the arm portions to form the integral band. Each bridge portion is elastically connected between each pair of arm portions to enable the integral band to expand and contract in the lengthwise direction. Each bridge portion lies in a first plane which intersects with a second plane containing a beam portion major face and is elastically deformable in the lengthwise direction along the first plane.
