  • Patent number: 6289664
    Abstract: A bracelet (2) formed by a flexible structure (4) and a plurality of hard elements (6) defining a hard structure, especially a metal structure, arranged in the median region (8) of the bracelet. The hard elements and the flexible structure comprise complementary fixing means defined by respective parts (20, 22) which form mutual abutments in a direction perpendicular (24) to the general surface (26) defined by the flexible structure. This flexible structure comprises elastically deformable parts which are stressed for assembly of the hard elements therewith. The features of the bracelet allow easy assembly without damage. Moreover replacement of the flexible part can be effected without damaging the hard elements, especially elements of gold.
