Abstract: Device for securing a first element of a watch 1 having a first threaded portion 11 to a second watch element 2 including a second threaded portion 22, including an intermediate element 3 for the angular orientation of the first element 1 relative to the second element 2. The intermediate element 3 includes a third threaded portion 31, arranged for cooperating with the first threaded portion 11 of the first element 1, and a fourth threaded portion 32, arranged to cooperate with the second threaded portion 22 of the second element 2. The thread pitches of the third threaded portion 31 and fourth threaded portion 32 are different.
Abstract: The escapement comprises an escape wheel assembly (1), a balance roller (3) carrying an impulse pin (4) and a first impulse pallet (5). It further comprises a lever (8) provided with a second impulse pallet (11) and with first and second locking pallets (12, 13). The wheel assembly (1) comprises an escape wheel with teeth (6) that mesh directly with the teeth (20) of the last wheel of a gear train (2), the teeth (6) of the wheel (1) engaging with the impulse and locking pallets.
Abstract: The bracelet clasp with an unfolding buckle includes a lever (2) pivotably mounted on a cap (1) by means of a first hinge (3a), said lever controlling a bolt (4) which is in turn mounted on said cap (1) by means of a second hinge (3b) distinct from the first. The bolt (4) is arranged to cooperate with a hook (22) fitted to the first arm (8) of the clasp. Elastic means (5) are arranged for keeping the lever (2) in a non-raised position and the bolt (4) engaged with the hook (22) when the lever is not manually activated.
Abstract: A corrector (1) for a function indicator (20) for a movement (100) including: a first control mechanism (30) for a first function, in a let down (31) or wound (32) position, a second control mechanism (40) for a second function, in a let down position (41) or release control position (42) followed by a return to the preceding position, and a display indicator (20) for a third function. First mobile part (50) driven by the first control mechanism (30) occupies a letting down (51)/winding (52) position, when the mechanism occupies the let down (31)/wound (32) position. Second mobile part (60) actuating the indicator (20) is driven by the second control mechanism (40) changing into the control position (42) when the first mobile part (50) is in a winding position (52) and cooperates with this latter in the letting down position (51), under the action of return mechanism (70).
Abstract: The invention relates to an inlaid ceramic decoration (10) including a ceramic body (11) that has at least one recess (12) forming the pattern for a decoration (13). According to the invention, said at least one recess is entirely filled by first and second electrically conductive layers (14, 15) of approximately 50 nm and a metallic galvanic plating (16) so as to form a ceramic element (10) inlaid with at least one metallic decoration (13) with improved visual rendering. The invention also relates to the method of manufacturing the inlaid ceramic element. The invention concerns the field of decorated ceramic parts.

Abstract: Timepiece device for simultaneously resetting to zero two time counters, particularly for a chronograph mechanism, each of the two time counters pivoting about an arbour secured to a cam (6b, 8b), the simultaneous zero reset device (1) including a lever (4) with two hammers (6, 8), which are applied against the respective cams (6b, 8b) when the two time counters are reset to zero, at least one pin (10, 12) used to guide the lever (4) with two hammers (6, 8) being secured to said lever (4) and moving in a shaped aperture (24, 26) made in a bridge (28), characterized in that a ring (16a, 16b, 16c) is mounted to rotate freely about the pin (10, 12) and is inserted between said pin (10, 12) and the shaped aperture (24, 26) in which said pin moves.
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for correcting a time indication given by a display mechanism for a timepiece of the type comprising a first display member, comprising: a winding stem arranged to occupy at least one time indication correction position A, a pinion coupled in rotation to the winding stem, a correction motion transfer connected kinematically to the pinion when the stem is occupying the correction position A, and a correction wheel assembly engaging with the display member and operated by the correction motion transfer. According to the invention, the correction motion transfer is formed by a ring having an internal circumference and an external circumference, at least one of which is provided with teeth meshing at least indirectly with said correction wheel assembly.
