The regulating device, the escapement and the gear train are mounted on a plate (6) fixed to a pipe (7) rotatably mounted in a support plate (8, 46), this pipe being situated at the center of the watch and driven in rotation by a spring driven device (9). Preferably, the pipe (7) surrounds a cannon pinion (11) carrying a minutes hand (12), this cannon wheel in turn surrounding a shaft (13) carrying an hours hand (14). The shaft (13) and the cannon pinion (11) are connected by a motion work (15) which is situated underneath the plate.
