Abstract
A watch strap, the two strap portions whereof are formed of a core of plastics material with a clip embedded therein. The clip has a hook-shaped end which projects from the core and forms with the core an attachment means for attaching to a watch case. That part of the core vicinal the hook-shaped end is provided with incisions to impart ease of deformability thereto so that each watch strap portion can be readily attached to and detached from its respective securing point on the watch case.
