Articulated bracelet with limited bending

The present invention concerns a non-extensible articulated bracelet, in particular for a watch, including a plurality of decorative annular elements which are sensitive to compression or shocks, said decorative elements being strung onto a central core formed by an inner chain of links connected to each other by pivoting axes and designed to co-operate with each other and with the decorative elements to prevent any accidental compression or shock from breaking said elements. The bracelet is formed of decorative elements () mounted on the links () of a chain (). Each decorative element () includes over a portion of its length a central rib () and two lateral edges () connecting the cap () and feet () made as an overthickness on the bottom (). Each link includes on either side of a slot () two coupling elements () connected by a bridge () provided with a pin hole (), each having a lateral arm () provided with a pin hole () and forming with the bridge () a complementary recess () of an extension () provided with a pin hole () at the other end. The bending of one link with respect to the following one is limited by blocking means provided either at the opposite pin holes or at recesses and extensions.
