Timepiece watch face
A timepiece having a face member with a face surface that displays indicia that is representative of a sports player and the associated sports player sports environment; time hands that represent at least a seconds hand that has a rotatable position about a center axis of the face member; an object that is carried by a distal portion of the seconds hand; the face member depicting a net disposed at a predetermined location on the face surface with the object positioned so that it passes through the net as the seconds hand rotates.
WATCH COMPRISING A DIAL INCLUDING A FIXED PORTION AND A MOVABLE PORTION
A watch including a dial including a fixed portion superimposed on a portion movable in rotation including a surface on which are arranged areas with visual appearances different from each other, the fixed portion including at least one through opening emerging on at least one of the areas, the movable portion being kinematically connected to a control member so as to be rotated by actuating the control member and being configured so that when it is rotated, the areas of different visual appearance appear successively through the opening.
Hand rotating around two axes
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.
Self-winding watch
A self-winding mechanical horological movement including a pivotally oscillating weight, wherein the oscillating weight is provided with a decorative disc mounted on the oscillating weight and pivotally driven by the weight. The disc is fastened to a support that includes a stem inserted into a hole provided in the rotational shaft of the weight. The stem and the hole include non-circular section cylindrical portions corresponding with one another, so that the support and the disc are pivotally driven by the shaft. The disc forms a decoration that covers the entire surface of the movement, without requiring technical complexities. The disc can be free to undergo an axial movement in relation to the weight, so that the disc may be removed from the weight when the horological movement is dismantled from a watch case.
WATCH HAVING A VARIABLE DIAL
The invention relates to a watch having a variable dial, and more specifically a watch that provides the wearer with the possibility of partially changing the appearance of the dial. According to the invention, the watch has a dial (1) that has at least one opening (6, 7) occupied by a removable bezel (3, 5) and the watch further has a plurality of carrying arms (9, 10) disposed radially on a carousel (8), each arm end situated on the circumference carrying a bezel (3, 5) and the carousel (8) being able to rotate about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the dial (1) and passing through the center thereof.

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.
Trigonometric display and method thereof
A trigonometric function display clock includes a clock face that has a center aligned with a central axis, axial markings aligned with an x-axis and a y-axis, and a secondary circle having a diameter equal to a radius of the axial markings. A first point on the secondary circle is aligned at the center of the central axis, and the secondary circle is configured to be rotatable about the first point. The secondary circle is configured to overlap and align with at least a portion of the axial markings as the secondary circle rotates about the first point.
