A portable electronic device configured to be positioned on a users wrist, the portable device being configured to perform an electrocardiogram, ECG, the portable electronic device includes a watchcase, a case back, configured to be at least partially in contact with the skin of the wrist, a glass, a bezel, mounted on the watchcase and surrounding the glass, movable in rotation with respect to the watchcase, a first ECG electrode, made of conductive material, on the case back and configured to be in contact with the skin of the wrist, a second ECG electrode, made of conductive material, on the bezel, an ECG electronic module, electrically connected to the first ECG electrode and the second ECG electrode, and configured to receive and process electrical signals from a user and retrieved by the ECG electrodes, to perform an electrocardiogram.

Provided is an electronic device. The electronic device includes: a main body mounted with an electronic unit including a controller, including a bezel disposed at the outer side thereof, and having a locking groove formed in the bezel; and a band part mounted with an additional device for exchanging an electric signal with the electronic unit and an electronic part providing information related to the additional device for the electronic unit, and including a coupling part detachably coupled to the locking groove. Here, the controller switches an operation mode of the main body according to the information related to the additional device provided by the electronic part when the main body and the band part are coupled to each other. Thus, when the band part mounted with the additional device is connected to the main body, the operation mode of the main body is automatically switched to a mode corresponding to the additional device, thereby providing convenience of use.

Provided is a multicolour cermet and/or ceramic article, and in particular a bezel of a timepiece, made by a method for injecting at least two materials of distinct colours, said article comprising a relief decoration of a colour different from the rest of the article, said decoration being made by laser ablation after injection of the two materials.

Provided is a multicolour cermet and/or ceramic article, and in particular a bezel of a timepiece, made by a method for injecting at least two materials of distinct colours, said article comprising a relief decoration of a colour different from the rest of the article, said decoration being made by laser ablation after injection of the two materials.

A cermet and/or ceramic multi-coloured article, and in particular a bezel (1) of a timepiece, produced by a method for compressing at least two materials (2, 3) of distinct colours, the article including a relief decoration (8) of a different colour from the rest of the article, the decoration (8) being produced by laser ablation on one of the materials (3) after compression of the two materials (2, 3).

A Dewar device for mechanical and/or functional components of a watch, the device being provided with a bracelet and a casing including an enclosure wherein a case of the watch can be disposed so that a crystal of the case is arranged opposite a crystal of all the elements of the casing defining this enclosure and at least one fastening device fastening the watch case in the enclosure of the casing by keeping it remote from all the elements of the casing defining this enclosure, the Dewar device including a device for actuating at least one push button by rotating a pivoting bezel of the casing.

A diving watch includes a first device for displaying the current time and a second device for analogically displaying a diving duration. The second device includes a hand dedicated to the indication of a diving duration and a rotating bezel provided with a visible face including a time scale including time graduations. The bezel cooperates with the dedicated hand, in particular continuously animated with a uniform rotational movement, by displaying an instant value of the diving duration.

A method for brazing a first ceramic component and a second metal alloy component, to make a structural or external timepiece element, a zirconia-based ceramic is chosen for the first component and a titanium alloy for the second component, a first recess is made inside the first component, set back from a first surface in a junction area with a second surface of the second component, braze material is deposited on this first surface and inside each recess, the second surface is positioned in alignment with the first surface to form an assembly, this assembly is heated in a controlled atmosphere to above the melting temperature of the braze material, in order to form the braze in the junction area.

Provided is a watch case (10) that includes a middle (11) to which are attached a crystal (12) and a back (13) delimiting an internal volume in which is arranged a horological movement (14) intended to drive indicating members. The case (10) also includes a mechanism for actuating an indicator (16) capable of moving in rotation and housed inside the internal volume of the case (10), the actuation mechanism including a bezel (15) capable of moving in rotation and intended to be handled by a user, and a transmission pinion (17) arranged such that it meshes with the bezel (15) and the indicator (16), the respective axes of rotation of the bezel (15), the transmission pinion (17) and the indicator (16) being parallel to one another.

A case including a case main body, a first exterior member which is arranged on an upper part of the case main body, and positioning members which are connected to the first exterior member, and positionally fix the first exterior member on the case main body, in which the first exterior member has connection portions provided in an undersurface thereof, and the positioning members have first positioning portions which are arranged in the connection portions, positionally fixed in the first exterior member, and positionally fixed on the case main body, and second positioning portions which are arranged and positionally fixed on the case main body.
