An electronic clock mechanism includes an analog display device including a ring of dates and a stopwatch hand associated with a graduation of a small counter. The ring and hand are driven by a same electric motor via a permanent gear train, the hand being mounted on a wheel of the permanent gear train, the wheel arranged between a motor pinion and a movable element including a date driving wheel. The ring and date driving wheel respectively include two sets of teeth forming a permanent gear having a relatively large clearance to define a dead angle region for the date driving wheel as the ring is positioned by a jumper. The dead angle region is used to drive the stopwatch hand independently of the ring. The permanent gear train is arranged such that torque for positioning the rotor creates for the date driving wheel a blocking torque for shock-resistance.

A device for displaying a succession of periodic events, such as zodiac periods, which form an annual cycle, this display device including a periodic event indicator organ; a mechanism for managing a duration for displaying periodic events by the periodic event indicator organ, this management mechanism including a cam for managing a periodic event display duration arranged to control the change from the indication of a periodic event to the indication of a next periodic event by the periodic event indicator organ; a date indicator mechanism driven by a horological movement; a month finger controlled by the date indicator mechanism so as to advance the management cam by one pitch per month, and a periodic event finger disposed between the management cam and the periodic event indicator organ and arranged to drive the periodic event indicator organ during a change of periodic event.

A solar panel includes a plurality of solar cells. Each of the solar cells includes a plurality of power generation regions, and connection regions that connect the plurality of power generation regions and have a lower power generation capacity than the plurality of power generation regions. A plurality of power generation functional units are formed in which the connection regions are disposed adjacent to each other.

A centralized control unit for controlling an arm moving in a clockwise direction and in a counter-clockwise direction includes an arbor about which the centralized control unit pivots. The arm is integrally mounted on a toothed actuating wheel as an assembly, and the assembly is mounted to freely rotate about the arbor. The centralized control unit also includes a wheel to control the arm in the clockwise direction, a wheel to control the arm in the counter-clockwise direction, and a power wheel kinematically connected to an independent barrel to drive the arm.

The timepiece movement is provided with an analogue display device for an item of information whose value varies periodically or intermittently, this analogue display device including an indicator for said information provided with a toothing and a mechanism for the periodic or intermittent driving of the indicator, this mechanism comprising a rotating wheel set whose pinion, in a meshing relationship with the toothing, is formed of two pins which are diametrically opposite relative to the rotational axis of the rotating wheel set, these two pins being configured to alternately penetrate successive hollows in the toothing and to form a self-locking system when the timepiece movement is subjected to shocks. Each of the two pins has, in a general plane of the toothing perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the rotating wheel set, a transverse profile having a first outer portion substantially in the arc of a circle centred on the axis of rotation.

A timepiece calendar system (100) including:a date mobile (1);a first device (3) for indexing the position of the date mobile;a second device (4) for indexing the position of the date mobile;an element (70, 3b, 4b, 40) for activating and deactivating at least one of the first and second indexing devices, the indexing of the date mobile by one or the other of the first and second indexing devices being mutually exclusive.
