Timepiece display mechanism, for a watch, comprising a roller pivoting about a main axis and comprising flaps, each pivoting about a secondary axis parallel to the main axis and having two faces, first drive means for pivoting the roller about the main axis, and second drive means for pivoting a flap about its secondary axis, in a determined position of this secondary axis relative to the main axis, and which include, at each flap, a drive pinion cooperating with a control means to modify, in sequence or continuously, the position of the successive flaps of the same roller or to modify, on demand, the position of a specific flap.

A digital display and a digital time device are provided, which includes a housing, a drive assembly, display assemblies and a mainboard assembly. The housing is provided with seven windows arranged to form the shape of the character “”. The mainboard assembly is fixedly connected to the housing and is located behind the windows. Seven curved grooves are provided inside of the drive assembly. The display assemblies include display sheets and pull rods. One end of each pull rod is fixedly connected to the display sheets. The display sheets are slidingly connected to the mainboard assembly. There are seven display assemblies. Each pull rod is slidingly connected to the curved grooves in one-to-one correspondence, and each display sheet is one-to-one correspondence with the windows. The present invention can achieve many advantages, such as low power consumption, great waterproof, strong moisture resistance capabilities and high stability.

A timepiece component including a shaft-like portion including at least one pivot about a pivot axis, at least the material forming this shaft-like portion is a non-magnetic alloy containing at least silver and palladium and having a Vickers hardness of more than 450 HV.

An adjustment mechanism for a timepiece display including an input wheel driving a control wheel controlling the position of a first display member, and including a differential mechanism which includes a drive wheel set retained by a jumper and pivotable via the first input wheel, to drive a planetary wheel meshing with the control wheel and pivoting off-centre with respect to a planetary wheel holder friction-mounted on a frame, the differential mechanism multiplying by a particular factor the rotation between one of the inputs and the output of the differential mechanism when the other input is stationary, and the planetary wheel holder includes manipulating device allowing a watch technician to release the friction to change the angular position of the planetary wheel and thus of the control wheel for correct indexing thereof with respect to another display member.

A timepiece display mechanism for a watch includes a roller pivoting about a main axis and including flaps, each pivoting about a secondary axis parallel to the main axis and having two faces, a first driver for pivoting the roller about the main axis, and a second driver for pivoting a flap about its secondary axis, in a determined position of this secondary axis relative to the main axis, and which include, at each flap, a drive pinion cooperating with a controller to modify, in sequence or continuously, the position of the successive flaps of the same roller or to modify, on demand, the position of a specific flap.

A display mechanism for a timepiece movement includes a plate defining a general plane, the display mechanism including a support intended to be rigidly connected to the plate and including a bearing housing a pivot defining an axis of rotation and rigidly connected to a display member bearing at least one display surface intended to be rotated between at least first and second different positions about the axis of rotation and to be situated substantially in a plane parallel to the general plane in the first position so as to define a reading position, in which the conditions for reading by a user are optimal, the support being arranged so that the axis of rotation defined by the pivot is oriented so as to have an inclination of between 10 and 80 degrees with reference to the general plane.
