A connection lock (100) for connection with a watch bracelet. A body portion (110) of the connection lock includes a receiving cavity (111), at least two sliding connection portions (112) and a connection opening (113). The receiving cavity (111) is enclosed by peripheral borders of the body portion (110) to receive a spare length of flexible tube or cable (400), a side border for connection with a bracelet strap (220) provided with a receiving groove (221) being provided with a notch (114) capable of matching the receiving groove (221), so as to enable the flexible tube or the cable (400) in the receiving cavity (111) to pass into the receiving groove (221) from the notch (114). The at least two sliding connection portions (112) are respectively arranged at lower edges of two opposite side borders of the body portion (110). The connection opening (113) is arranged, adjacent to the notch (114), in a side border of the body portion (110) perpendicular to the sliding connection portions (112). When an external fitting (300) connected to the flexible tube or the cable (400) is slid and connected to the sliding connection portion (112) of the connection lock (100) via a sliding portion (310) of the external fitting, a connection portion (320) of the external fitting (300) is slid in from the connection opening (113) such that the connection portion (320) is connected to the flexible tube or the cable (400), facilitating mounting of the external fitting (300) to the watch bracelet assembly (200) or dismounting of the external fitting (300) from the watch bracelet assembly (200).
