Abstract
A coupling pin connection for releasably attaching a watchband to a watchcase. The watchband includes an end connector that defines an aperture for interfitting engagement with a lug member projecting from the watchcase. The lug member defines a groove in communication with a recessed section formed in the watchcase. The end connector includes bore extending through shoulder portions on opposite sides of the aperture. A coupling pin member is selectively insertable through registered alignment of the bore and the groove. The coupling pin member further includes a spline. The spline is adapted for engagement within the recessed section when the coupling pin member is rotatable about its longitudinal axis to provide positive securement of the watchband to the watchcase.
