A timepiece incudes a crown (4) housed in a cavity (10) provided in the case and open towards the outside, such as a cavity (10) in the side wall of the case (1) of a wristwatch, in the rest position of the crown (4). To bring the crown out of its rest position, the user rotates a rotary knurling-roller (5). The knurling-roller (5) is coupled to a tube (15) wherein is inserted a crown body (18) integral with the crown. The rotation of the knurling-roller actuates rotation as well as translation of the tube, which is linked only in translation to said cylinder (18). The tube displaces the crown in an axial direction without rotating the crown around its central axis (6). At least one control position of the crown and the rod can be reached, by rotating the knurling-roller (5) without having to manually pull the crown outwards.

The invention relates to watches. According to the invention, the watch comprises a case with a removable cover and a clock mechanism installed in the case, including a setting/winding mechanism. The watch is equipped with a combination lock used to block the setting/winding mechanism and block removing the cover from the case to prevent unauthorized use of the watch. The invention allows increasing the safety of using the watch due to the combination lock installed therein to block the setting/winding mechanism and block removing the cover from the case to prevent unauthorized use of the watch.

A timepiece case including a middle (20) receiving a horological movement (1) having at least one function corrector (10, 12) for carrying out various functions of activating, selecting, resetting and/or correcting a piece of information derived from the current time of the horological movement (1). The middle has a correction member (100), and a control stem (120) moving in translation within the cylindrical body of the correction member. The correction member (100) is mounted such that it slides in the middle (20) between a plurality of stable positions, each of the stable positions modifying the position of the end (122) of the control stem (120) facing the horological movement (1).

A timepiece incudes a crown (4) housed in a cavity (10) provided in the case and open towards the outside, such as a cavity (10) in the side wall of the case (1) of a wristwatch, in the rest position of the crown (4). To bring the crown out of its rest position, the user rotates a rotary knurling-roller (5). The knurling-roller (5) is coupled to a tube (15) wherein is inserted a crown body (18) integral with the crown. The rotation of the knurling-roller actuates rotation as well as translation of the tube, which is linked only in translation to said cylinder (18). The tube displaces the crown in an axial direction without rotating the crown around its central axis (6). At least one control position of the crown and the rod can be reached, by rotating the knurling-roller (5) without having to manually pull the crown outwards.

A method is for manufacturing an ornamental part, for example a watch, jewellery or telephone part, in particular a watch crown. The part includes, at least partially, a hard material with a Vickers hardness exceeding 1,000 HV. The method includes the following main steps: producing a precursor from a mixture of at least one powder material with a binder, producing an insert made of a polymer material, the insert having, at least partially, a negative shape of that desired for at least one portion of the part, overmoulding the precursor onto the insert made of a polymer material by injection into a mould to form a green body, and sintering the green body to form a body of the future part from the hard material.
