Definitions
- the present invention relates to a timepiece comprising a rotating bezel.
- the object of the present invention is to produce a timepiece capable of changing shape and appearance, in particular to change the external shape and appearance of the dial to create a play timepiece and whose aesthetics can be modified by the user.
- the present invention thus relates to a timepiece comprising a watch case containing a clockwork movement and having a rotating bezel which is distinguished by the features listed in claim 1 and the dependent claims.
- the timepiece illustrated in the drawing is a wristwatch with a rotating bezel and which in addition has the characteristic of appearing in an upper opening of the bezel different portions of the dial according to the angular position of the bezel relative to the dial and therefore to the watch case.
- the illustrated example not only the appearance of the dial depends on the angular position of the telescope, but the outer shape of the watch also varies depending on the angular position of the telescope.
- the timepiece illustrated by way of example in the drawing is a wristwatch which comprises a watch case formed of a middle part 1, a bottom 2 and an upper wall 3.
- the middle part 1 comprises a central housing 4 in which is fixed a clockwork movement 5 whose switch through the upper wall 3 by a central orifice 6 thereof.
- the bottom 2 is screwed on the middle part 1 by screws 7 and a gasket 8 seals between the bottom 2 and the middle part 1.
- the upper wall 3 of the watch case comprises feet 9 which are housed in bores 10 of the caseband 1 and this upper wall 3 is fixed to the caseband 1 by screws 11.
- the upper wall 3 and at least the upper part of the caseband 1 are cylindrical and respectively have a circular cross section and an annular section.
- the outer diameter of the upper wall 3 is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the middle part 1 or the upper part of the middle part.
- the timepiece further comprises a circular dial 12 placed or engraved on the upper surface of the upper wall 3 of the watch case.
- This dial 12 has a diameter substantially equal to that of the upper wall 3.
- the dial 12 has the digits, twelve to noon, three to three hours, six to six hours and nine to nine hours as shown in FIG. figure 5 .
- the outer cylindrical surface of the caseband 1 comprises a first annular groove 13 in which is housed a seal 14 and a second annular groove 15 serving as will be seen further to the attachment of a rotating bezel 16 on the watch case.
- This rotating bezel 16 has a cylindrical inner housing 17 of circular section opening on the underside of the bezel whose diameter corresponds to the outer diameter of the watch case. In the assembled position, the cylindrical wall of this inner housing 17 of the bezel 16 is located around the watch case and compresses the seal 14. Tabs 18 are fixed in the lower face of the bezel 16 using screw 19 and extend into the second annular groove 15 of the middle part 1 so as to maintain the bezel 16 in its axial position assembled to the watch case while allowing a rotation of this bezel around the watch case.
- the middle 1 may also have a lower portion which is located below the plane of the bezel 16 and which has an outer wall other than cylindrical.
- the bezel can rotate over a complete box (the box having its own ice) and therefore waterproof.
- the telescope it is not necessary (but it is nevertheless still possible) for the telescope to surround a second mirror, and the middle part can have any shape. This form of execution is then technically very easy to achieve.
- thrust bearings 20 housed in the peripheral wall of the middle part 1 cooperate with recesses 21 formed in the cylindrical wall of the inner housing 17 of the middle part for indexing the bezel 16 in different predetermined angular positions with respect to the watch box.
- the bezel 16 also has an upper opening 22, communicating with and centered on its cylindrical internal housing 17, having a non-circular shape, for example oval or elliptical as illustrated in the drawing, but which can also be square, triangular or in another form not circular.
- An ice 23 closes this upper opening 22 of the rotating bezel 16.
- the outer shape of the bezel 16 can be any circular for example, in which case, regardless of its angular position relative to the watch the outer shape of the watch remains the same. However, if, as illustrated, the outer shape of the rotating bezel 16 is not circular, the appearance of the watch changes for each of the different angular positions that the bezel 16 can take with respect to the watch case.
- the opening 22 of the telescope is oval as is its outer periphery.
- the major axis of the opening 22 of the bezel 16 is centered on the axis 12H-6H of the dial and on the axis of the bracelet.
- the numbers 12 and 6 of the dial are visible.
- the general appearance or outer shape of the watch also varies depending on the angular position of the bezel 16 since its outer shape is not circular.
- additional displays such as that of a calendar or a second movement of the watch
- scenery of the dial 12 in its peripheral zone 25 the appearance of the dial changes in function of the angular position of the rotating bezel 16 with respect to the watch case.
- the amplitude of Rotation of the telescope can be limited to 90 ° (eg using ratchets and stops).
- the rotation of the telescope can be done over 360 ° in one direction or in both directions.
- the watch case 1, 2, 3 remains closed.
- a flange 26 is fixed in the non-circular opening 22 of the bezel.
- This flange 26 can be used to crimp stones or to wear a decoration that will further accentuate the modification of the appearance of the watch according to the angular position of the bezel relative to the box.
- the watch comprises a rotating bezel having a non-circular opening 22, revealing only part of the dial 12.
- the watch case has a middle 1 being ( at least partly) circular or cylindrical
- the rotating bezel has a circular inner housing 17 in which the middle part 1 is engaged, the opening 22 being centered on the axis of said circular housing 17.
- the rotation of the telescope can be synchronized over the hour or minutes or can indicate a change of time zone.
