Embodiment Construction

[0016] figure 1 The watch shown is a chronograph type. The watch generally has a case 10 in which a figure 1 cannot be seen in but will refer to figure 2 with 3 Caliber 12 described.

[0017] The movement has a dial 14, and the pointers for displaying the current time information are located in front of the dial, that is, an hour hand 16 for a 12-hour revolution, an hour hand 18 for a 24-hour revolution, a minute hand 20 and a second hand 22. This display is completed by a calendar indication 24, which is shown through a small window 26 in the noon position of the dial. The hour hand 16 and the minute hand 20 are located at the center of the dial 14 and surround a figure 1 The plane of the sheet of paper rotates about the axis A-A perpendicular to it.

[0018] The watch has three chronograph pointers 27, 28, 30 in addition, which respectively display the seconds, minutes and hours of chronograph.

[0019] To guarantee the control of the watch, the user is provided with...

Abstract

Watch movement with hand display, comprising mobile elements ( 44, 42 ), designed to receive the hour ( 16 ) and minute ( 20 ) hands indicating current time, mounted pivoting to pivot about a first axis (A-A) arranged substantially at the center of the movement and four mobile elements ( 58 b , 60 b , 64 b , 62 b) designed to receive hands displaying complementary functions. According to the invention, the four mobile elements ( 58 b , 60 b , 64 b , 62 b) are mounted pivoting on the movement about second (B-B), third (C-C), fourth (ND) and fifth (E-E) axes arranged on a straight line (X-X) perpendicular to them.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to movements for watches with pointer displays, in particular watches of the complication type. A movement capable of displaying functions other than the date, usually a calendar, day of the week, hours, minutes and seconds, is called a complication watch movement. This is the case with watches called chronographs, which can start and stop a chronograph at a given moment, and can restart or reset the chronograph to zero at any moment. Background technique [0002] Watches made with these movements typically have the current hour and minutes displayed by hands located in the center of the dial. The chronograph second hand is concentric with the hour and minute hands. Additional information is displayed with pointers. Typically the current second and the minute and hour of the elapsed time. This information is displayed by means of a small hand whose axis of rotation is generally located at a distance from the central axis of es...
