  • Patent number: 4671055
    Abstract: A bracelet for the jewelry and watch making industry, includes rectangular elements connected in a flexible manner by oval links to form several parallel rows adjacent each other. The elements of adjacent rows are also connected with each other by oval links. Each element includes an upper plate and a bottom plate having cutouts that receive the free ends of pillars protruding from the upper plate. The links are of a sufficient dimension to embrace one pillar each of adjacent elements with sufficient play in the longitudinal and transverse direction of the plate, a vertical play being assured by the height of an abutment that keeps the upper plate and the bottom plate at an appropriate distance from each other.
