摘要： A clasp for a wristlet has at least two movable blades (4), (5) articulated with respect to one another about an axis of the blades (51) and a locking device (10) making it possible to lock or unlock a first blade (5) relative to a second blade (4), respectively in closed and open configurations of the clasp. The locking device (10) is linked to the first blade (5) and has an actuation lever (2) intended for the actuation of the locking device by a user, a locking element (1) capable of cooperating with a complementary locking element (4a) of the second blade (4), and an intermediate element (3) linked to the locking element (1) by a first link device and to the actuation lever (2) by a second link device, at least one of these two link devices being provided with at least two degrees of freedom.

摘要： The device for fixing a wristband to a watch middle includes a connecting element (11) for connection to a wristband (10) or a watch middle (20), at least one pin (1) able to occupy two positions, one projecting from the connecting element (11) and another retracted into a housing (11a) of the connecting element (11), and a receiving element (21) for connection to a watch middle (20) or a wristband (10), having at least one bore (21a). The fixing device includes at least one insert (5), and is designed to occupy at least two configurations: a first configuration in which the at least one pin (1) occupies a position retracted into the connecting element (11), enabling a wristband to be separated from a watch middle, and a second configuration in which the at least one pin (1) occupies a position projecting from the connecting element and is positioned in the at least one bore (21a) of the receiving element (21), the at least one insert (5) forming an interface between the at least one pin (1) and the at least one bore (21a) and/or the housing (11a) to minimize frictional wear on rotation of the at least one pin (1) relative to the receiving element (21) and/or the connecting element (11) respectively.
