Abstract: A system adjusts the angular position of a first toothed wheel set relative to a support on which the first toothed wheel set is mounted such that it can pivot. The adjusting system includes an adjusting member allowing an action to be applied to an angular position of the first toothed wheel set to adjust the angular position of the first toothed wheel set relative to the support. The invention adjusting system can be incorporated into a timepiece.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for step-by-step time setting of a sympathetic watch (200) by a sympathetic clock (100), forming together a sympathetic assembly, where a predetermined time-setting step and a reference position of the displays (3; 4; 5) of the watch (200) are determined, and where the clock (100) performs the time setting of the watch (200) by positioning a transmission line in a position corresponding to the time setting, and by actuating, in successive steps, each of the value of the predetermined step, a transmission line capable of imparting to a time-setting mechanism internal to the watch (200) any movement necessary to precisely achieve the display of the current time.

Abstract: A method for reference time setting of the displays (4; 5) of a sympathetic watch (200) by a sympathetic clock (100) forming a sympathetic assembly (1000) with the watch (200) which includes a coupling mechanism (706) between its display and finishing gear trains, and a hammer (701) movable between a coiled position where it is retained by a pawl, and an active position where it rests on an hour heart cam (702) carried by an hour wheel (708) of said watch (200), to constrain it in rotation to its smallest radius.

Abstract: A method for acquiring data on a sympathetic clock (100) for setting the time of a sympathetic watch (200) at request. The sympathetic watch forms with the clock (100) a sympathetic assembly (1000). The watch includes an hour display (4) and a minute display (5), a reference position of which will be defined at a reference time, and the clock (100) performs the time setting of the watch (200), either when the watch (200) is placed on the clock (100), or alternatively at a predetermined time on the clock (100), or at request by action of a user on a control means (300) included in the clock (100) or the watch (200), or upon control of a horological movement (900) included in the clock (100).

Abstract: A method for reference time setting of the displays of a sympathetic watch by a sympathetic clock forming a sympathetic assembly with the watch. At any time, the reference time setting of the watch is performed by a first phase during which the placement in the reference position is triggered, by a first displacement of an interface between the clock and the watch, the reference time setting of the displays, and the coupling mechanism is uncoupled to allow the rack to drive the display gear train of the watch in the counter-clockwise direction, over as many revolutions as necessary, until the pawl meets the ratchet tooth opening of the hour cam, then the time-setting mechanism controlled by the clock sets the time of the displays of the watch in the clockwise direction to the exact time by recoiling the rack, then the coupling mechanism is recoupled.

Abstract: A sympathetic timepiece assembly (1000), including a sympathetic watch (200), and a sympathetic clock (100) with a receptacle (150) for receiving the watch, for the power recharging and/or the display adjustment and/or the rate adjustment controlled by the clock (100) or by the watch, through a connection mechanism including at least two distinct transmission lines between the clock and the watch in the transfer position, the watch including a resonator (10), and a display gear train and a finishing gear train, and, or else a stop mechanism (20) arranged to stop the operation of said resonator, or else a coupling mechanism allowing to separate the display from the finishing gear train, or else both such a stop mechanism and such a coupling mechanism, and the watch including at least one hour display (4) and one minute display (5).

Abstract: A date calendar display mechanism driven via a kinematic chain by a horological movement of a timepiece. A first and second date indicators, the first date indicator remaining still during a 24-hour period separating the passage from the last day of a month having 31 days to the end of the first day of the following month, the kinematic chain including a wheel continuously engaged with the horological movement and having a toothing via which the wheel meshes with a pinion which contributes to driving the first indicator, the wheel being, at one point, devoid of teeth such that, during the above 24-hour period, the wheel does not mesh with the pinion and remains still. A dual jumper pivots about an axis with a first beak via which it is engaged with a toothing of the first date indicator and, at a second beak via which it is engaged with a toothing of the pinion, the dual jumper being elastically held engaged with the first date indicator and with the pinion.

Abstract: A repeater mechanism includes: an hour part, which is mobile between a resting position and a reading position; an hour spring that returns the hour part towards its reading position; a chain that is hooked to the hour part; a barrel that includes a shaft, a drum, a spring, a pulley that is mobile in rotation relative to the shaft and on which the chain is hooked, and also a ratchet that is integral in rotation with the barrel shaft and coupled to the pulley as long as the hour part exerts a traction force on the chain, and uncoupled from the pulley as soon as this traction force is cancelled out; and a pulley spring that is interposed between the ratchet and the pulley.
