A timepiece mechanism includes a first energy source with a regulating member, a second independent energy source, a control member driven by the second energy source, and a blocking device controlled by the first energy source to block the second energy source and release it to allow the control member to be displaced by jumps powered by the second energy source. The blocking device includes first and second mobile parts kinematically interconnected, the first mobile part including a drive device, the second mobile part including a stopping device; a rotating drive member connected to the first energy source and cooperating with the drive device to displace the mobile parts, alternately in opposite directions; and a rotating blocking member connected to the second energy source and cooperating with the stopping device to be blocked by the second mobile part and released at the determined times by second mobile part movement.

An analog electronic timepiece is an analog electronic watch capable of displaying a plurality of types of calendar information, and includes a first index adapted to indicate the type of the calendar information, and a second index adapted to indicate a value of the calendar information of the type indicated by the first index.

An electronic timepiece includes: a first indicator and a second indicator that are configured to rotate in combination with each other; an operation receiver; and at least one processor. The processor sets a set position that is to be indicated by the second indicator according to an input operation received by the operation receiver. The processor causes the second indicator to temporarily stop rotating at a timing when the second indicator indicates the set position while the first indicator is rotating.

A timepiece display mechanism with an instantaneous jump function, including a Maltese cross mechanism with an annular ring controlling, in part of its travel, the pivoting of a planet wheel set and driven by a timepiece movement via a cam wheel set arranged to move the annular ring from an activated position to a deactivated position in an instantaneous displacement in order to pivot a planet wheel set, and vice versa in a controlled return slower than the instantaneous displacement, the cam wheel set includes a coaxial cam and plate including a slot for driving an eccentric finger of the cam which controls the pivoting of a driver driving the annular ring between two extreme activation and deactivation positions, the slot allowing a clear jump of the driver in the deactivation position, and a longer reactivation time.

On-demand horological display mechanism, including a plurality of primary mechanisms each capable of determining the value of a variable, and at least one actuator that can be maneuvered by a user for the selection of the display of the instantaneous values of a specific variable determined by one of the primary mechanisms, each display being performed by the cooperation of a moveable display including a hand or a disc, with a complementary display including at least one graduated index, where the display and/or the complementary display is common to all of the displays that the display mechanism may produce.
