Definitions

  • the invention therefore relates to a timepiece comprising a barrel, a spring housed in this barrel, time display devices mechanically coupled to this barrel, a generator of electrical energy coupled also mechanically to the barrel and being arranged at deliver through first and second terminals of output an alternating voltage, a rectification circuit connected to the first and second output terminals of the generator by two respective input terminals and being arranged to deliver through two output terminals one DC voltage from said AC voltage, and a regulator circuit supplied by the DC voltage and intended to control the speed of rotation of the generator so as to impose on the display organs a rotation speed corresponding to an indication correct for the current time.
  • the voltage Ua across the output terminals 4a and 4b of the rectification circuit is a direct voltage which has a value equivalent to Uc3 + Uc4 ⁇ 4Ug .
