ABSTRACT:
A metal watch case and metal bracelet assembly in which the tail ends of the bracelet components are attachable to the complementary ends of the case in a manner simulating a "soldered look," yet these components may readily be detached to replace the bracelet. The case has a frame-like form defined by a pair of opposing side legs and a pair of opposing end legs, each end leg having a slot indented therein at its rear. The rear of the case is depressed along its inner periphery to form a socket for accommodating the watch movement so that its dial is exposed at the front of the case. Attached to the tail of each bracelet component is a connector having a hook projecting therefrom that is received in the slot of the related end leg. Snap fitting into the socket behind the movement is a cover plate having a marginal flange that overlies the slots of the end legs of the case to entrap the hooks of the bracelet components, whereby to detach these components from the case one has only to unsnap the cover plate.
