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).

A horological mechanism with a first mechanism (100) and a first output wheel set (101), a second mechanism and a second output wheel set (102), for displaying a first or a second indication specific to the first mechanism (100) or second mechanism (200), by a switching and coupling mechanism (500), including, on a coupling arbor (937, 938), two input wheel sets (1; 2) connected to the output wheel sets (101; 102), a sliding wheel set moving under constant strain between these input wheel sets (1; 2), and cooperating alternately and exclusively, by clicking in a single angular position per revolution, with either one, selected under the action of a command from a user on a controller, to establish a driving connection between the input wheel set engaged with the sliding wheel set at the given moment in time, and a display means.

A horological mechanism (1000) with a first train (100) and a first output wheel set (101), a second train (200) and a second output wheel set (102), for alternately displaying on a display (800, 8, 28) a first and a second indication respectively specific to the first train and second train, by a switching and coupling mechanism (500), including two input wheel sets (1; 2) connected to the output wheel sets, which includes a sliding wheel set (5) capable of moving under constant strain between the two input wheel sets, and cooperating alternately and exclusively with either one, selected under the action of a command from a user, to establish a driving connection between the input wheel set engaged with the sliding wheel set at the given moment in time, and a display (800, 8, 28) to produce a switchable display.

A running equation of time mechanism includes civil hour and minute hands to indicate civil time and a concentric true minute hand to indicate true time. The running equation of time mechanism includes an equation of time cam and a differential gear device, a first input of which is formed by a civil minute pipe on which a civil minute hand is pressed, and a second input of which is formed by the equation of time cam. The differential gear device includes a planetary reducer wheel set via which the civil minute pipe drives a civil hour pipe on which is pressed the civil hour hand, and a planetary multiplier wheel set via which the civil hour pipe drives a true minute pipe on which is pressed the true minute hand.

A correction mechanism for a function of a movement for a timepiece, notably a display function, including a corrector, and at least one clockwork part, notably a gear wheel, in which the clockwork part can be driven by a movement cooperating with a flexible transmission end of a movement.
