A timepiece display mechanism including at least a first retrograde drive device for a first display member displaying a first magnitude, and a second retrograde drive device for a second display member displaying a second magnitude, the first retrograde drive device including a first drive rack to exert on a first wheel set driving the first display member, an opposite force to a resistance force exerted by a first return rack, the second retrograde drive device including a second drive rack to exert on a second wheel set driving the second display member, an opposite force to a resistance force exerted by a second return rack, wherein the pivot axes of the first drive rack and of the first return rack are remote, and/or the pivot axes of the second drive rack and of the second return rack are remote.

Disclosed is a clockwork with pointers or with a pointer module driven by a mechanical driving gear, wherein the clockwork is a hybrid clockwork that in addition to the mechanical driving gear, also at least includes an additional driving gear with a motor and an electric or electronic controller that is internal and which is equipped to be able to drive and/or adjust the pointers or the pointer module in parallel or in series with the mechanical driving gear.

Method for relative time setting of a sympathetic watch (200) by a sympathetic clock (100) with which the watch (200) forms a sympathetic assembly (1000), the watch (200) including at least one hour display (4) and one minute display (5), a reference position of which will be defined, and the time-setting is executed, only at request by action of a user on a control means (300) included in the clock (100) or the watch (200), or automatically periodically controlled by the clock (100), and, to perform the relative time setting, the clock (100) drives said displays (4; 5) of the watch backwards, in the counter-clockwise direction, with a sufficiently long stroke to ensure that the displays (4; 5) pass through the reference position, before a return in the clockwise direction to the instantaneous time, and method for winding the watch by this relative time setting.

The invention concerns a watch 1 comprising a watch case 2, the watch case 2 containing a watch movement 6 and two dials 8a, 8b. The watch 1 further includes a casing ring 3 arranged inside the watch case 2, the watch movement 6 being mounted in the casing ring 3 so as to be suspended in a cantilever arrangement inside the watch case 2, said casing ring 3 supporting the two dials 8a, 8b.

A timepiece with a double-sided display, including a first display member and a second display member coaxial to the first display member and integral therewith with a first common arbor. The centers of mass of the first display member and the second display member are, in projection on a plane perpendicular to their common axis. The first display member and/or the second display member is arranged to display a visual animation, and is movable above a back, and, either above a mask partially and incompletely covering the back.

A timepiece display mechanism including a barrel with a spring between the arbor of a first wheel set driven by a drive wheel set, and a drum carrying a peripheral snail cam traversed by a feeler controlling the periodic jump of a display member, this drum carrying an peripheral finger outside the trajectory of this feeler, this first wheel set including an eccentric crank pin permanently guiding a groove to control the periodic back and forth motions of a pivoting anchor piece, which includes, on either side of an anchor piece axis, a beak and a stop for stopping or releasing this finger depending on the angular position of this anchor piece, the angular travel of each finger between its release by this beak and return to abutment on this stop defining the jump duration.
