ABSTRACT:
A watchband securing device includes a variable length rod extending between opposed watch case horns. One of the horns is pivotally connected to the watch case and one end of the rod is connected to the pivotable horn. This enables the rod to pivot laterally between open and closed positions away from and towards the watch case, respectively. After a watchband is threaded on the rod in the open position, the rod is rotated towards the closed position until the opposite end of the rod engages the opposed horn. A camming surface is provided between the rod and the opposed horn that causes the rod to be shortened against a spring force as it engages the opposed horn so that it can become aligned with a bore hole in the opposed horn and engage the borehole by the spring force extending the rod length. To release the rod from the opposed horn, a manual push piece is provided to enable manual shortening of the rod so that it clears the borehole and releases the rod for pivotal motion towards the open position.
