Wristwatch wrapper device

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a wristwatch wrapper device being a transient protective device of a tubular construction to protect a wristwatch when not adorned on a user, more particularly, to protect the face of the watch and the strap or bracelet against external elements, for example, dirt, dust, water, humidity and harm.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Wristwatches can be valuable assets and collectables for many people and passionate wristwatch enthusiasts. Wristwatches can be valuable heirlooms holding great value. The wristwatch as an heirloom can remind a current person who owns the wristwatch of all the people who came before him or her who owned the wristwatch. In the case of a family heirloom, that's a living reminder of past generations all tied up in the wristwatch as an active presence of loved ones.

Horologists and designers, also, hold many valuable enforceable utility patents and design patents on the utilitarian elements of the horologist's or designer's wristwatch(es). The most valuable, complex, and high precision wristwatches in the world of horology include the Omega®, Omega® Ladymatik, Patek Philippe® Grandmaster Chime 6300G. High precision timepieces include, Patek Phillipe® Nautilus; Patek Philippe® Nautilus 5980R; Patek Philippe® Nautilus Tiffany & Co.®; Aquanaut Rolex®; vintage Rolex Submariner; Rolex Emperor Bao Dei; Jacob & Co®; Jacob & Co.®; Brilliant Skeleton Northern Lights; Richard Mille RM47; Rolex Paul Newman Daytona; Van Cleef & Arpels®; Cartier®, Tiffany & Co.®, Tiffany & Co., Art Deco; Bulgari®, the value of which can range in the amount of $1,000 to $18,000,00 dollars, and increased amounts in auction.

Even more, a wristwatch gifted as an heirloom from a loved one permeates unmeasurable value. Therefore, there is a need to provide a wristwatch wrapper device to protect the wristwatch when the wristwatch is not adorned on the wrist of the user. In general practice, when the wristwatch is not being worn by the user or owner, the wristwatch is commonly stored in a box, a jewelry box, or a customized wristwatch drawer or closet, displaying the wristwatch or a collection of wristwatches. However, when a person is not wearing his or her wristwatch when they are in transit, and more particularly, travelling through an airport and airport security, the wristwatch is randomly dropped into the airport security tray, or, perhaps, shoved into a temporary holding location, for example, a garment pocket, a purse, a carry-on bag, a shopping bag, without protection and at risk of being scratched, having a cracked crystal, having a dented band, being exposed to liquids, and/or otherwise damaged by extraneous objects within the temporary holding location. For luxury wristwatches, heirloom wristwatches, or collection pieces, made of delicate precious metals like gold, the damage can be remarkable and costly to repair, and, thus, the value of the wristwatch decreases. Wristwatches are known to sustain damage from impact and from contamination as a result of the ingress of humidity, sweat, water, liquids, or other fluids. Such damage may result, for example, in a cracked crystal, scratches on the crystal, dislodgement of the case, lug ends, and crown which can ruin or limit the functionality of the wristwatch. A variety of wristwatches contain sensitive and fragile components, for example, the band, straps, bracelet, hands, bezels, luminous markers, batons or numbers, a camera, a screen. Dropping or inadvertent rough handling of the wristwatch can render these various features unusable. Moreover, the intrinsic value of the wristwatch is, also, reduced over time for the owner as they become more and more used to storing their wristwatches alongside a variety of personal items each day and night.

To avoid the necessity of buckling the wristwatch and its straps or bracelet in a user's pocket of a garment, or roughly thrown in an airport tray without a covering, and the consequent damage which will diminish the quality, appearance and value of the wristwatch, a wristwatch wrapper device is needed. The wristwatch wrapper device provides an uncomplicated mounting of the wristwatch and its straps or bracelet, thereon, the wristwatch wrapper device and an uncomplicated removal of the wristwatch therefrom. In particular, the wristwatch wrapper device provides a device characterized with an ability to retain the wristwatch and its straps or bracelet against inadvertent detachment from the wristwatch wrapper device. In one embodiment, the wristwatch wrapper device is configured with a viewing window where the face of the wristwatch is revealed thereby allowing the user to view the face of the wristwatch.

An object of the present invention is to provide an improved wristwatch holder for a user, especially, when the wristwatch is not currently being worn by the user, or when the wristwatch is being temporarily being stored in a user's drawer, closet, or secured safe.

Another object of the invention is to provide a wristwatch wrapper device comprising a novel and improved type of holder therefor and upon which a wristwatch and its attached straps or bracelet may be readily and securely mounted and readily removed therefrom.

An object is to provide an improved type of wristwatch wrapper device to temporarily contain and safeguard a wristwatch or other article of jewelry while the owner/user is not wearing the wristwatch and is in transit.

An object of the invention is to provide a wristwatch wrapper device comprising a novel and improved type of holder or frame therefor and upon which a wristwatch and its attached bracelet, band, or straps may be readily and securely mounted and readily removed therefrom.

An object of the invention is to provide a wristwatch wrapper device that is shock absorbent, waterproof, and ultraviolet blocking.

An object of the invention is to provide a wristwatch wrapper device provided with a metal ring-spring gate O-ring which is removably integrated into the wristwatch wrapper device. A metal swivel carabiner hinge including a swivel connector is, also, provided, to couple with the metal ring-spring gate O-ring to enable the user to removably couple the wristwatch wrapper device to the user's article of clothing, a pocket, a bag, pocket book, luggage, suit case while travelling wherein the user's wristwatch is contained therein the wristwatch wrapper device.

Thus, there remains a continuing need for new and improved wristwatch wrapper device that provides a protective flexible wrapper to protect the user's wristwatch from damage when not adorned by the user, more particularly, when the user is in transit.

Also, at least one of the elastic warp filaments, the non-elastic warp filaments, the elastic weft filaments, and the non-elastic weft filaments includes (e.g., are formed of, are coated with, are treated with) at least one hydrophobic material. The inclusion of the hydrophobic material increases the hydrophobicity of the textile, and thus increases the ability of the textile to repel water during wet conditions.

As known in the art, the warp threads or warp yarns and the weft threads or the weft yarns are the two basic components used in knitting and weaving to turn the thread or yarn into a material or fabric. The lengthwise or longitudinal warp yarns are held stationary in tension on the frame or loom of the circular knitting machine or circular weaving machine while the transverse weft threads or yarns (sometimes woof) are drawn through and inserted over and under the warp threads or yarns. A single thread of the weft crossing the warp is called a pick. Terms vary (for instance, in North America, the weft is sometimes referred to as the fill or the filling yarn). Each individual warp thread in a fabric is called a warp end or end.

The warp yarns or threads are the surface threads or ends which are stretched vertically on the loom of the circular knitting machine or the circular weaving machine and are therefore made of stronger, coarser fibers than the weft threads. The term “warp” comes from the Old Norse word “varp”, meaning “the cast of a net”. The warp threads or yarns are the lengthwise threads of the fabric loom and are held stationary to provide support and structure as the weft threads or weft yarns are knitted or weaved though in a horizontal direction by way of the circular knitting machine or circular weaving machine. The warp threads lie parallel with the first elasticized selvage 20 and the second elasticized selvage 26 of the tubular body 90 of the wristwatch wrapper devices, 10, 100, 200. The warp threads are the support network for the weft threads or weft yarns.

The weft yarns are the weft or filling threads or yarns that are created by the horizontal threads or yarns that are passed through the warp threads via the shuttle of the circular knitting machine or the circular weaving machine during the knitting process or the weaving process. The term “weft” is derived from the Old English word “wefan” meaning “to weave”.

The anterior material layer 12 the posterior material layer 14 and the interior lining material 13 can be seamlessly knitted or woven together to form the tubular body 90 of the wristwatch wrapper devices 10, 100, 200 by way of any one of the circular knitting machine, a weaving knitting machine, a circular hosiery machine, and programmed through a user interface incorporated with any one of the circular knitting machine, the circular weaving machine, or the circular hosiery machine, which can include a predetermined number of warp yarn threads per inch and/or a predetermined number of weft yarn threads per inch. In some embodiments, for example, the number of warp yarn threads per inch, and/or the number of weft yarns per inch, can be between 130 and 200 threads per inch; between 130 and 180 threads per inch; or between 150 and 250 threads per inch; or threads between 250 threads and 350 threads per inch. Each of the anterior material layer 12 and the posterior material layer 14 can have between 150 threads and 250 threads per inch, and the interior lining material 13 can have between 250 threads to 350 threads per inch. The anterior material layer 12 and the posterior material layer 14 can be configured with a surface density (e.g., a mass per square meter) that can vary depending on one or more design considerations and the amount of flexibility.

Denier is a unit for measuring the linear mass density of filament yarns (man-made fiber). Polyester and Nylon yarn quality (fineness) is measured by the unit of Denier (D). It falls under the direct yarn count system. Denier is defined as the mass in grams for every 9000 m of yarn. The rule recites Tex=Denier/9 such that 150 Denier filament yarn is equivalent to 16 Tex and 300 Denier filament yarn is equivalent to 33 Tex.

In an exemplary embodiment of the wristwatch wrapper devices 10, 100, 200, the linear density of the warp elastic threads, and the weft elastic threads, yarns, or filaments, can be anywhere from 20 denier-600 denier to form the anterior material layer 12, the posterior material layer 14, and the interior lining material 13, and the one or more transferable mounting panels 16^1+Nof the embodiment of the present invention in the wristwatch wrapper device 10. In this exemplary embodiment, the mounting portion 38 of the tubular body 90 can include warp elastic threads and weft elastic threads that are configured with a higher denier than the warp elastic threads and the weft elastic threads that are implemented in the anterior material layer 12, the posterior material layer 14, the interior lining material 13, and the one or more transferable mounting panels 16^1+N. The content of the elastomer in the fabric can be, for example, from about 30% to about 85%. The non-elastic threads can be formed of a variety of materials, including, but not limited to: nylon, polyester, wool, acrylic, and/or regenerative fiber such as rayon, acetate, and/or cellulosic fiber like cotton, or a combination of any of the above.

In an exemplary embodiment of the wristwatch wrapper devices 10, 100, 200, the anterior material layer 12, the posterior material layer 14, and the interior lining material 13 can include warp yarns and/or the weft yarns that are texturized using one or more known texturizing techniques (e.g., draw texturizing, air texturizing). Such texturing can be advantageous in that it can provide the anterior material layer 12, the posterior material layer 14 and the interior lining material 13 with a soft surface. Here, and when used herein the disclosure, the soft surface means that the surface is not coarse and does not include a rough surface and is flexible.

In addition, the anterior material layer 12, the posterior material layer 14 and the interior lining material 13, of the wristwatch wrapper devices 10, 100, 200, can be made with a mixture of elastic warp filaments, elastic weft filaments, and non-elastic warp filaments and non-elastic weft filaments. The elastic warp filaments and the elastic weft filaments can be made of elastic materials. Acceptable materials for the elastic warp filaments and the elastic weft filaments include, but are not limited to, an elastane, elasticized polyurethane, spandex, or LYCRA®. The non-elastic warp filaments and the non-elastic weft filaments can be made of a variety of different non-elastic threads or yarns. In some embodiments, the non-elastic filaments and/or non-elastic weft filaments include at least one filament made of a synthetic material, and/or at least one filament made of a natural material.

In an exemplary embodiment, the anterior material layer 12 and the posterior material layer 14 and the interior lining material 13 and the mounting portion 38 can include elastic warp filaments and elastic weft filaments in various percentages when formed by the circular knitting machine or the circular weaving machine. In an exemplary embodiment, the anterior material layer 12, the posterior material layer 14, and the interior lining material 13 and the mounting portion 38 which are knitted on the circular knitting machine or circular weaving machine including warp threads, yarns, or filaments include elastane, elasticized polyurethane, spandex, or LYCRA®, and the weft threads, yarns, or filaments, include non-elastic warp filaments made of polyester, nylon, silk, polyamide, a polypropylene, wool, rayon, acrylic, regenerative fiber, acetate, cellulose fiber, cotton, or combination thereof.
