1. A device for adjusting a length of a wristlet, wherein the device comprises:
a cover;
an adjusting link element designed to be connected to a wristlet strand,
the cover having a longitudinal direction corresponding to a direction in which extends a wristlet strand which is to be connected to the adjusting link element,
the adjusting link element being mounted so as to be movable relative to the cover at least along the longitudinal direction of the cover, so that a displacement of the adjusting link element relative to the cover along the longitudinal direction of the cover makes it possible to lengthen or shorten a length of a wristlet strand;
an actuating device arranged on the cover so as to be movable relative to the cover at least along the longitudinal direction of the cover, and
a first kinematic connection connecting the actuating device and the adjusting link element, so that an actuation of the actuating device at least along the longitudinal direction of the cover is able to bring about a longitudinal displacement of the adjusting link element in relation to the cover,
wherein the actuating device is arranged at an upper surface of the cover.
