A watch, in particular a dive watch, having a movement (16) which is arranged in a watch case (12) and can be used to drive an hour hand (3) via an hour tube and a minute hand (4) via a minute tube in a fashion sweeping over a dial (1). Also present is a pressure detecting device for detecting the ambient pressure outside the watch case (12) and a display for representing the detected pressure values. There is arranged in the watch case (12) a mechanical pressure transducer to which the ambient ...

To obtain a degree of freedom in a design of a circumference part of a timepiece armor assembly, and provide a watch whose degree of freedom in a size of a dial is high. A timepiece armor assembly is formed of an armor case of one-piece structure in which a case bottom wall and a case band part provided with a crown have been monolithically molded and of an armor cover which has a transparent member and an edge member supporting a circumference edge of the former member and has been mounted to t...

A watch for displaying time in hours and hundredths of an hour. The watch includes a housing assembly being designed for being worn by the user. A timing assembly is positioned in the housing assembly and operationally coupled to a power supply. The power supply supplies power the timing assembly. The timing assembly is designed for providing a pulse every second when the power supply supplies power to the timing assembly. A processing assembly is positioned in the housing assembly. The processi...

A watch to assist a smoker to break the smoking habit comprises a standard watch mechanism including hour, minute and second indicators, an additional minute indicator that is resettable to zero by the momentary depression of a first switch, a counter with a rotatable indicator that is incrementally displaced by the momentary depression of a second switch and a manually rotatable graduated dial mounted about the periphery of the watch crystal.

A watch has an hour wheel (17) which can be driven in rotation around an axis of rotation (10) by a drive, and has a rotatable universal-time hour wheel (13) arranged coaxially thereto. These two hour wheels are connected to each other by a spring-loaded detent connection. The universal-time hour wheel (13) is rotatably settable stepwise relative to the hour wheel (17) by a setting element. It overcomes the spring force of the detent connection, in which connection the setting element can be cou...

A watch having a crown for setting the motion work and having a device, which can be driven by the hour wheel of the movement of the watch, for the automatic display of the months and the days of the month in accordance with the Gregorian calendar. In this connection, the display of the day of the month can be driven by a date wheel 13 and the display of the month by a month wheel 22 of the device. A year wheel of a year display and a decade wheel 26 of a decade display and possibly a century dr...

An improved shock absorber for a watch movement and a method of making the same. The watch has a molded casing and a movement with a molded baseplate. A plurality of shock absorbers permanently mount the movement in the casing. Each shock absorber has a first portion molded in the watch casing, a second portion molded in baseplate of the watch movement, and an elastically deformable shock absorber connecting portion extending between the first portion and the second portion free of the casing an...

A resilient member for connecting a crystal to a watch casing in which the crystal is used for generating acoustic signals. The member is of generally annular configuration with an inner portion rigidly connected to the circumference of the crystal, an outer peripheral portion connected to a supporting member of the watch casing, and a free portion extending between the inner portion and the outer peripheral portion. The free portion has a width and a thickness which permits flexing in a directi...

The watch according to the present invention includes time-indicating means, time-setting means operable to set the time-indicating means, a setting shaft which is axially movable to first and second positions and arranged to be operatively connected to the time-setting means in the first position. Also included in the watch are rotatable calendar-indicating means provided with a circular series of teeth, a calendar-correcting pinion non-rotatably mounted on the setting shaft, a calendar-correct...

Watch with coaxial minutes and hours discs, the minutes disc having indications for 0 to 29 minutes in a first color and 30 to 59 minutes in a second color and, having a third disc for indicating seconds or dates. Each hour indication is repeated, one in the first color, the other in the second, and successive hour indications in different colors are visible through the dial.
