Abstract: A timepiece resilient hand with drive pipes at the ends thereof, including a display index which is at a variable distance from the pipes, and including flexible segments between each pipe and the index each with a web having a substantially constant section, at least one flexible segment thereof includes discontinuous elements projecting from the web thereof in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the pipes and defining, along this web, an alternation of sections, the stiffnesses thereof per unit of length are different from one another, and/or at least one web includes a succession of areas of opposite concavities, projecting on a plane perpendicular to the axis of the pipes.

Abstract: A horological display mechanism including a cam arranged to be driven by a time base, at least a first drive device of a first display of a first quantity, the drive device including a drive rack pivoting about an axis A and being arranged to cooperate, directly or indirectly, with a drive wheel of the first display, the drive rack including a first rigid part having a toothed sector and second elastically deformable part, the first rigid part and second elastically deformable part being separated by a slot receiving an eccentric arranged to cooperate with the elastically deformable part and separate the latter from the first rigid part.

Abstract: A timepiece display mechanism with a resilient hand including a first and second device for driving, about an output axis, a first and a second pipe mounted at the ends of a flexible strip, and including a display index distant from the pipes, these drive devices being arranged to deform the flexible strip, by varying the angular position of one pipe with respect to the other about the output axis, and to vary the radial position of the display index with respect to this axis, this mechanism includes a first differential on the drive train of the first pipe, one input of which is formed by a first cam, and a second differential on the drive train of the second pipe, one input of which is formed by a second cam.

Abstract: A tool for actuating a corrector push-button fitted in a small portable object, wherein this actuation tool includes a body which extends between a rear end which defines a gripping zone of the actuation tool and a front end which defines an actuation zone of the actuation tool, at least the front end of the actuation tool being magnetised.

Abstract: A device for attaching a bracelet or strap to a watch case includes a bar secured to the watch case by at least one horn and an insert integral with the end of the bracelet. The bar and the insert are complementary in order to cooperate by fitting one inside the other to form a removable assembly to make the bracelet interchangeable. The bar is formed by a cylindrical arbor having at least one flat portion. The flat portion cooperates by fitting with a housing made in the insert. The housing has a substantially rectangular opening for receiving the flat portion. The bar includes a control member for pivoting the bar from a first position A, in which the insert is positioned on the arbor, to a second position B, in which the insert is locked onto the bar.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for attaching a bracelet or strap to a watch case, the device comprising, on the one hand, a bar secured to the watch case by means of at least one horn, and on the other hand, an insert integral with the end of the bracelet, wherein the bar and the insert are complementary in order to cooperate by fitting one inside the other to form removable assembly means able to make the bracelet interchangeable. According to the invention, the bar is formed by a cylindrical arbor having at least one flat portion, the flat portion cooperating by fitting with a housing made in the insert, the housing having a substantially rectangular opening for receiving the flat portion, and the bar including a control member for pivoting the bar from a first position A, in which the insert is positioned on the arbor, to a second position B, in which said insert is locked onto the bar.

Abstract: The hammer (2) forms part of a striking mechanism (1) of a mechanical watch, which includes at least one gong (11) that can be struck by said hammer. The hammer includes two metal parts (2?, 2?), which are secured to each other by welding or soldering. A first part is made of hard metal to form an impact part (2?) of the hammer against a gong (11) of the striking mechanism. A second part is a metal heel (2?), particularly made of steel, via which the hammer can be mounted on a plate of the striking mechanism.

Abstract: The stop second device during precise time-setting of a watch fitted with a tourbillon (1) comprises mobile elements such as levers (14, 15, 16) mounted in the carriage (2) of the tourbillon, each of said mobile elements being returned by a return spring (28, 29, 30). These mobile elements are capable of contacting the periphery of the balance (3) of the tourbillon, to block said balance when action is exerted on at least one of said mobile elements by a shoe (17) arranged outside the carriage (2) and controlled by the time-setting stem (26) of the watch. The outer edges (18, 19, 20) of the levers are located above pillars (4) of the carriage (2), such that the shoe (17) can act on the levers without interfering with said pillars.
