The present invention relates to a lever device (10) of a watch mechanism, comprising a column wheel (16) and a main lever (20) mounted so as to pivot, about a first pivot axis (24), alternately between two stable positions. The main lever (20) comprises an anchor provided with two beaks (21a, 21b) which, in each of the two stable positions, are alternately located, one of them between two columns (17) and the other in contact with a peripheral flank of another column (17). The main lever (20) further comprises a distal part (26, 29) for controlling the watch mechanism. The anchor and the distal part (26, 29) of the lever are arranged to pivot about the first pivot axis (24). The invention also relates to a watch movement comprising a chronograph and the lever device arranged to bring the chronograph from a disengaged configuration to an engaged configuration and vice versa.

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.

A shock absorbing coupling device for a timepiece, includes a coupling wheel (2) able to take a coupled position and an uncoupled position, a coupling member (1) bearing the coupling wheel and a coupling cam (6) engaging with the coupling member (1) to define the coupled position and uncoupled position of the coupling wheel (2). The device also includes a locking member (12) rigidly attached to the coupling cam (6) and an intermediate member (9) controlled by the coupling member (1). The intermediate member (9) is intended to engage with the coupling member (1) and the locking member (12) to prevent or limit the movement of the coupling member (1) under the effect of a shock when the coupling wheel (2) is in the coupled position, to thus avoid the coupling wheel (2) leaving the coupled position.

A platform for displaying several mutually different horometric items of information, includes as many crowns as the horometric items of information to be displayed on the platform. Each of the crowns is arranged to receive an associated information support and is movable in rotation at a speed selected according to a horometric item of information displayed on the associated information support.

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.

A chronograph mechanism including an energy accumulator, a regulating system, a chronograph counter train including a minute-counter having a minute wheel set and at least one minute indicator member, and a seconds-counter having a seconds wheel set and a seconds indicator member, a chronograph zero-reset mechanism including a minute zero-reset mechanism. The minute zero-reset mechanism is arranged to cooperate with the minute wheel set, the minute indicator member being permanently integral with the minute wheel set, and the chronograph counter train includes an uncoupling device between the minute-counter and the seconds-counter, arranged to kinematically connect the minute wheel set and the seconds wheel set during the counting and to uncouple the seconds wheel set from the minute wheel set when the chronograph mechanism is reset to zero.

The invention relates to a chronograph mechanism (1; 201), for a timepiece movement, including a counter for a unit of time comprising:a display wheel capable of being rotated from a zero position,a return wheel, rotatable between an initial position, associated with the zero position of the display wheel, and a final position, the display wheel and the return wheel being arranged such that the return wheel pivots from its initial position to its final position when the display wheel makes one revolution,a resilient return member (20) arranged to act on the return wheel and to tend to return it to its initial position, the display wheel including a toothing arranged in mesh with the return wheel and having a truncated portion intended to allow the display wheel and the return wheel to be uncoupled on each complete revolution of the display wheel.
