ABSTRACT:
A wristband connector including an outer tubular member having two radially inwardly projecting guides, one at each end of the outer tubular member. A lug slot extends from one end of the outer tubular member along part of its length. Two inner tubular members having an outside diameter slightly less than the inside diameter of the outer tubular member have a guide slot which cooperates with and slidingly receives the guide on the outer tubular member to prevent relative rotation of the inner tubular members and outer tubular member while permitting them to slide therein. One of the inner tubular members further includes a finger lug extending outwardly therefrom which slides in the lug slot in order to provide a manual means for retracting one of the inner tubular members into the outer tubular member thereby facilitating placement of the wristband connector on a wristwatch. Pins integral with and extending longitudinally outwardly from the inner tubular members engage outwardly extending arms of a wristwatch. A spring inside the outer tubular member biases the inner tubular members outwardly and a means for holding a wristband to the wristband connector is operatively attached to the outer tubular member.
