The modular unit includes an optical housing, forming a first module, a portable white light source (200) emitting an excitation luminous flux, forming a second module, a portable magnifying device, forming a third module. The optical housing includes a first mounting interface for removably mounting the portable white light source on the optical housing, the first mounting interface being configured so that the excitation luminous flux emitted by the portable white light source is directed in the direction of the excitation filter; and a second mounting interface for removably mounting the portable magnifying device on the optical housing, the second mounting interface being configured so that the magnifying device is opposite the inspection opening.

A method for calibrating a light smart watch includes: providing an FPC soft board under a dial, a size of the FPC soft board matching a size of the dial, the FPC soft board is divided into a plurality of partitions, each partition is insulated from other partitions, and each of watch hands and each partition form a capacitor in turn when the watch hands run; detecting a capacitance change amount of each partition, determining positions of partitions where the watch hands are currently located, and determining a current time indicated by the watch hands, according to the positions of partitions where the watch hands are currently located; comparing the current time indicated by the watch hands with a current time of a mobile terminal to determine a time error; and adjusting the watch hands, according to the time error to run in sync with the time of the mobile terminal.

A watch winder (1) comprises a fixed assembly having a central shaft 92), a rotatable assembly rotatably mounted to the central shaft and comprising a housing (3) having distal end configured to receive a watch, and a drive assembly mounted on the fixed assembly to and configured to rotate the rotatable assembly about the central shaft and comprising a motor (7), drive gear (8, 30, 32, 33), and a battery assembly (9, 10) operatively connected to the motor. The drive assembly is mounted to the fixed assembly within the housing (3) of the rotatable assembly, and the central shaft extends proximally of the housing (3). The housing is axially mounted on the central shaft (2) by means of a distal bearing plate (18) and a spaced apart proximal bearing plate (19), wherein the drive assembly is fixed to the central shaft between the two spaced apart bearings plates. The provision of two spaced-apart bearing plates reduces the forces exerted on the bearings, reducing the energy consumption of the device. One of the distal or proximal bearing plate, generally the distal bearing plate, comprises a gear operatively coupled to the drive gear of the fixed assembly.

A device is disclosed for verifying the state of a watch and resetting it to the correct time. In a case of the device, a watch can be disposed on a watch support, which can be moved from a position without measurement to a measurement position in a vision system, or vice versa. In a position without measurement, the watch on its support can be observed from the outside of the case of the device through at least one electronic shutter activated or an optical valve activated to be in a transparent state, whereas in the measurement position, the electronic shutter or the optical valve is deactivated to be made opaque.

An implantable medical device comprises an electronic functional device for performing a function of said implantable medical device, said electronic functional device having an operational state for performing said function and a switched-off state. A wake-up device serves for transferring said functional device from said switched-off state to said operational state. The wake-up device comprises a first timer circuit for repeatedly transferring the functional device to the operational state according to a predetermined first timing scheme, a detection device for detecting a signal from a signal source external to the implantable medical device, and a second timer circuit for repeatedly switching the detection device to a reception state according to a second timing scheme.

An assembly (1) for measuring a relative humidity level inside a watch (2), the watch (2) provided with a movement (10) and a device (4) for determining the humidity level present in the enclosure (9) of a case (3) of this watch (2). The determination device (4) includes a receiver module (6a, 6b, 6c) for receiving at least one acoustic signal from a timepiece component (11) of said movement (10), and a control unit (7) connected to said receiver module (6a, 6b, 6c). The control unit (7) is configured to run a model for evaluating a water vapour content of a gaseous fluid contained inside the enclosure (9) based on the at least one acoustic signal received by the receiver module (6a, 6b, 6c).

The invention relates to a tool for actuating a push-button corrector equipping a portable object of small dimensions, said actuating tool comprising a body that extends between a rear end defining an area for grasping the actuating tool and a front end defining an area for actuating the actuating tool, the actuating tool further comprising an actuating rod arranged such that it slides in a coaxial manner inside the body, the actuating rod being capable of moving from back to front and from front to back between a retracted rest position wherein it is retracted in a stable manner inside the body of the actuating tool, and a protruding working position wherein it protrudes outside of the cap, the actuating rod remaining in the protruding working position thereof as long as an axial pushing force is exerted thereon, and returns to the retracted rest position thereof as soon as the axial pushing force is released.
