Abstract

The watch has a case (11) receiving a watch movement, and a winding mechanism with a winding crown (8). The crown is movable along an axial direction between normal position or movement winding position and a movement adjusting position in which the crown has a clearance with respect to the case. Movable driving elements i.e. movable levers (1, 2), are connected to a control element (5) to drive the crown in the normal position. The element (5) and the levers are conformed and controlled to absorb the clearance of the crown driven in the normal position, between the element (5) and the levers.
