A releasable coupling assembly for securing a wristband to a watchcase. A pair of lug members extending from a top and a bottom sidewall of the watchcase provides respective alignment slots. The respective ends of a flexible wristband include a rigid connector member and guide pins registrable with the alignment slots. The sidewall has a notched surface adapted for engaging a complementary raised surface of the connector member to securely position the wristband with respect to the watchcase. A locking pin is selectively insertable through an aperture in one of said lug members and threadably connected to the other of said lug members to form an integral connection with the watchcase.

Having thus described the invention, there is claimed as new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent: 1. An coupling assembly for securing a wristband to a watchcase comprising a pair of lug members projecting from a sidewall of the watchcase, said lug members defining opposed alignment slots, an end of said wristband having a connector member, said end of said wristband being adapted for accommodation between said pair of lug members, said connector member defining an abutment surface, a guide pin projecting from said wristband, said guide pin being adapted for engagement within the respective alignment slots for placing the abutment surface of the connector member in contiguous contact with the sidewall, at least one of said lug members further defining a transverse aperture, a bore extending through the wristband, said aperture being registrable with the bore when the abutment surface of the connector member is in contiguous contact with the sidewall, a locking pin selectively extendable through the aperture and the bore for securing the wristband to the watchcase in continuous abutting relationship; the locking pin is arranged substantially parallel to the guide pin when located in the aperture and bore.
