A timepiece movement includes: an hour wheel and pinion; a minute wheel and pinion; a winding stem; a time difference correction train; a date indicator; and a date change mechanism. The hour wheel and pinion includes an hour wheel that rotates with the minute wheel and pinion, an hour jumper, an hour jumper pinion, and an hour wheel body that turns with the hour wheel via the hour jumper and hour jumper pinion, and turns with the time difference correction train. The date change mechanism includes a date change wheel that turns with the hour wheel body, a date change lever, a date change cam that flexes the date change lever by rotating with the date change wheel, and turns in response to the flexed date change lever spring force, and a date change pawl that rotates with the date change cam, and advances the date indicator.

A control mechanism for control of a plurality of timepiece displays, including a group with one first display and one second display which are separate, driven, according to a reference period, by a timepiece movement, and including, for each group of displays, a train provided to drive, according to a control period, a control moving body, this mechanism including, for each group, a first control element, for control of the first display, and a second control element, for control of the second display, at different moments within the control period, and control device for disengaging the first and the second control elements, including a control lever, which is provided to pivot with a to-and-fro motion, according to a limited angular course, and which supports the first control element and the second control element.

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 system (90) for driving and holding in position a mobile unit (50) for displaying time or time derivative information includes a device (80) for driving a mobile unit (50) including a driving cam (13) and a driving lever (30) provided to drive a driving member (23), a device (40) for holding a mobile unit (50) in position, a device (70) for activating and deactivating the position-holding device (40) including a deactivation cam (22), and a device (12, 21) for mechanically coupling or synchronizing the driving cam (13) and the deactivation cam (22). In one embodiment, the driving cam and the deactivation cam have separate rotation axes and are linked by a gear mechanism. In another embodiment, the driving cam and the deactivation cam are coaxial.

Timepiece driving device (100), in particular for an instantaneous jump calendar system, the device including; an input mobile (13); a main cam (11) having a main cam profile, and connected to the input mobile either (i) with angular backlash or (ii) via a unidirectional coupling; an auxiliary cam (12) connected to the input mobile, and having an auxiliary cam profile; a cam follower (21) adapted to cooperate with the main cam profile and/or with the auxiliary cam profile; and an energy accumulator (22) elastically biasing the cam follower toward the main cam profile and toward the auxiliary cam profile, the timepiece driving device (100) being arranged so that the cam follower (21) comes substantially into contact with the auxiliary cam profile immediately at the end of the driving of the main cam (11) by action of the energy accumulator (22) on the main cam (11) via the cam follower (21).
