A timepiece includes a drive module, a dial including a central opening, an hour pipe passing through the central opening of the dial and driven in rotation by the drive module, and a dial attachment device. The attachment device includes a holding tube arranged around the hour pipe and mechanically connected to the drive module. The holding comes to bear against the dial or against a dial support to which the dial is attached.

A light-emitting clock has a case, a dial, a light-emitting mechanism, a movement and a plurality of hands. The case has a front cover, a back cover and a washer. The front cover is coupled to the back cover. The washer is disposed between the front cover and the back cover. The dial is disposed between the washer and the back cover. The light-emitting mechanism has a switch, a power unit electrically connected to the switch, and at least one lamp strip electrically connected to the switch. The switch and the power unit are disposed on the back cover. The lamp strip is annularly disposed at the washer. A light-emitting surface of the lamp strip at least faces the rim of the dial. The movement is disposed on the back cover. The hands are coupled to the movement and correspond in position to one side of the dial.

Dial (20) for a timepiece (300) including a dial plate (21), at least one dial foot (22) extending along a foot axis (A1) and having a shaping (231), notably a notch (23), oriented toward the dial plate and intended to receive a mechanical action that presses the plate against a clockwork movement (10), particularly against a frame (11) of a clockwork movement (10), and a first zone (40) of lower rigidity configured or arranged to deform elastically and/or plastically, in a direction mainly parallel to the axis (A1) of the foot, as the mechanical action is applied to the shaping (231), a portion of the first zone being provided with a lower material profile so as to constitute a portion of the dial that is able to be mainly deformed or experience most of the deformation, and a flexible blade of the first zone extending substantially perpendicular to the axis (A1) of the foot and set into the rest of the foot at one of its ends.

A method for manufacturing a one-piece timepiece dial assembly made of light alloy includes making, in a first assembled state, a dial including a flange whose material is a first light alloy, including opposite to the first side of a display area visible to a user, at least one foot for attachment to the dial. The flange includes at least one receiving area complementary to an end area of at least one foot which is a weldable foot that can be welded or brazed to the flange at the interface between the receiving area and the end area. The weldable foot is made of material that is the first light alloy or a second light alloy that can be welded or brazed to the first light alloy. The method further includes irreversibly assembling by welding or brazing at least one weldable foot to the flange.

A timepiece includes a display plate, a movement which rotatably supports the display plate about an axis in a plate thickness direction and is installed in an axial direction, a straight pin which is erected in the movement in the axial direction, an opening portion which is provided in the display plate, into which the straight pin is inserted, and which includes a width decreasing portion having a width decreasing toward one side of the axis in a circumferential direction, and a rotation mechanism which rotates the display plate to the other side in the circumferential direction to cause the straight pin to be clamped by the width decreasing portion.
