A timepiece display mechanism with a resilient hand including a first and second device for driving, about an output axis, a first and a second pipe mounted at the ends of a flexible strip, and including a display index distant from the pipes, these drive devices being arranged to deform the flexible strip, by varying the angular position of one pipe with respect to the other about the output axis, and to vary the radial position of the display index with respect to this axis, this mechanism includes a first differential on the drive train of the first pipe, one input of which is formed by a first cam, and a second differential on the drive train of the second pipe, one input of which is formed by a second cam.

A timepiece, that includes a display mechanism arranged to control the movements of a display organ with respect to an indication scale including different indications having at least two different widths and being separated from one another by corresponding separation spaces, where the separation spaces all have substantially one and the same width.

Horological display mechanism (100) for a timepiece (1000), comprising at least one three-dimensional display support (10), which is arranged for the simultaneous display of at least a first variable on a first three-dimensional display (901) under the action of a first control mechanism, and of a second variable on a second three-dimensional display (902) under the action of a second control mechanism, wherein the first display (901) surrounds the second display (902), or vice-versa, and wherein the first control mechanism and the second control mechanism are capable of being manoeuvred independently of one another, and constitute separate mechanisms, one for controlling the translational motion and the other the rotational motion, or vice-versa.

A display mechanism of a watch including at least one indicator member and a drive member assembly. The indicator member is mounted to rotate about a first axis of rotation and is configured to indicate a time. The indicator member also has a second axis of rotation extending along the indicator member and a rotary element mounted to rotate about the second axis of rotation. The drive assembly includes a first drive member and a second drive member such that the first drive member drives the rotary element when it is moving about the first axis of rotation.

An information display device includes: a position changing unit that changes a position of an information indicator in accordance with a type of information to be displayed by the information indicator; and an operation unit that causes the position changing unit to change the position of the information indicator that represents one type of information to a new position that represents another type of information, the operation unit causing the position changing unit to perform a movement completion operation for indicating to a viewer that the type of information displayed has been changed, in accordance with the another type of the information to be displayed when the position changing unit finishes changing the position of the information indicator to the new position.

Horological display mechanism (100) for displaying variables on separate unit display supports (10), each enclosing a display indicator (901; 902) which is a first display (901) capable of moving in translation, or a second display (902) capable of moving in rotation, all of these unit supports (10) comprise indicators (901; 902) of the same kind, which are either first displays (901) for displaying a first variable, or second displays (902) for displaying a second variable, or both first displays (901) and second displays (902), all visible to the user, the display mechanism (100) comprises a control mechanism (300) arranged to drive wheels or rod systems for driving the different display wheel sets and comprises a first carrier (111) for driving, by itself, all of the first displays (901), and/or a second carrier (112) for driving, by itself, all of said second displays (902).

An electronic timepiece includes: a 6 o'clock information display unit that displays one display mode among a plurality of display modes including a barometric display mode in which a barometric pressure is displayed, using a first display hand; a 10 o'clock information display unit that displays a change in the barometric pressure using a second hand in a case in which the display mode displayed by the 6 o'clock information display unit is the barometric display mode; a 2 o'clock information display unit that displays the barometric pressure using measurement display hands in the case in which the display mode displayed by the 6 o'clock information display unit is the barometric display mode; and a time display unit that displays a time using an hour hand and a minute hand irrespective of the display mode.

An electronic timepiece enables displaying multiple times and easily correcting the displayed time. An electronic device has a correction mode setting unit that sets a first time correction mode for adjusting a first time, or a second time correction mode for adjusting a second time, in response to a correction mode setting operation; and a display control unit that moves an indicator hand to a first indicated position indicating that the hands to be corrected are first hands when the first time correction mode is set, and moves the indicator hand to the second indicated position indicating that the hands to be corrected are second hands when the second time correction mode is set.

A smart watch comprises a case, a display device configured to present a user interface disposed in substantially all of a face of the case, a bezel around the display device configured to be rotated to select a mode of operation of the smart watch, and an analog first watch arm and an analog second watch arm disposed over the display, the second watch arm coaxial with the first watch arm. In a first mode of operation, the user interface presents a watch dial and control the first and second watch arms indicate a time of day first and second watch arms to indicate a time of day. In a second mode of operation, the user interface presents a dial and control the first and second watch arms form a pointer, the pointer configured to indicate a reading on the dial.
