Name of watch style?

Hi

I was flying back from Barcelona recently and at the airport they had watches that were kind of like bracelets in that they didn't go all the way round - like this:

but with a watch on it obviously! And a lot prettier than that picture as well :rotfl:.I have quite small wrists and most watches are too big for me (unless I buy kids ones!), but these went round my wrist quite well...but I didn't have time to investigate them properly because our flight was called!

Anyway I was just wondering if there was a name for this kind of watch design? I've tried searching for them online but can't find any so don't know if I'm using the wrong search terms...

    I don't know about the watch design, but that type of bangle is call a Torc (sometimes spelled Torque or Torq). If you can remember which shop at the airport, maybe try googling see if they've got a website?? HTH
