  • Patent number: 6847589
    Abstract: The watch disclosed has a case of ovoidal shape, wherein a circular watch movement (5) is arranged off-center, on the side of the end of the case with the larger radius. On the side of the other end there is a moon phase indicator disc (16) and a power-reserve indicator of the watch. The moon disc is driven step-by-step by the movement (5) via a control lever (35) having a beak (43) that drives an external toothing (44) of the disc. This lever extends at least partly along one edge of the case, where a correction push-button is mounted, that can activate (P) the lever in the same direction as the movement is driving, which prevents any interference between the two actions.

  • Patent number: 5327400
    Abstract: The present invention has for its object a watch movement more particularly a wrist watch, a chronograph watch or a pocket watch which comprises a time display formed by a dial and hands and which comprises a tide indicator constituted by a tides disk 16 which is to be seen through a window of the dial 5 and which makes one turn in twenty-four hours. This disk is driven in rotation through the hand display. A moon phases hand 15 is also driven by the hand display, at the speed of one turn in 29.5 days and cooperates simultaneously with the tides disk 16 and with the signs 20 to 23 representing the phases of the moon disposed on the dial 5 around the tides disk 16.
