Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for switching the time display mode of an electronic watch with analog display, and to the associated watch.
  • the object of the present invention is to at least partially overcome the drawbacks mentioned above.
  • the invention it is possible to simultaneously display a first hour (advantageously, the hour in a first time zone) and a second hour (advantageously, the hour in a second time zone), and this as long as the means actuation is not manipulated.
  • the first hour is displayed by the main means of time indication, while the second hour is displayed by the secondary means of time indication.
  • the actuating means is manipulated, the two hours remain simultaneously displayed, but by the time indication means which are reversed: the first hour is then displayed by the secondary time indication means, while the second hour is displayed by the main means of time indication.
  • the analog indicator indicates which time is displayed on which timekeeping means. If the indicator is in the characteristic position of the first mode, this means that the main means of time indication display the first hour.
  • the indicator is in the position characteristic of the second mode, this means that the main means of time indication display the second hour.
  • the indicator is advantageously a needle, pointing in a first direction to indicate the first mode, and pointing in a second direction to indicate the second mode.
  • the method comprises placing the indicator in the first position characteristic of the first mode, from a first position working of the indicator.
  • the indicator is not dedicated to the indication of the time displayed by the main means. It has this role only after an initial actuation of the control member. Thus, before the initial actuation, it is in a first working position.
  • the indicator is for example the second hand, and the first working position is the position of the second hand at the time of the initial actuation of the control member.
  • the method comprises placing the indicator in a second working position, from the second characteristic position of the second mode.
  • the indicator is returned to a second working position, which advantageously corresponds to the second in progress if the indicator is the second hand.
  • the first hour and the second hour correspond to hours according to two different time zones.
  • control member is configured so that an initial actuation of the control member, carried out in a temporary interval preceding the manipulation, places the indicator in the first characteristic position of the first mode, from a first working position of the indicator.
  • control member is configured to, following the permutation of the position of the indicator, place the indicator in a second working position, from the second characteristic position of the second mode.
  • the indicator is the second hand, temporarily assigned to the indication of the time display mode following the initial actuation of the control member.
  • the indicator is dedicated to indicating the time display mode.
  • the indicator only takes two positions: the first position indicating the first mode, or the second position indicating the second mode.
  • the indicator has no other function.
  • the indicator is a needle.
  • the needle points in a first direction to indicate the first mode, and points in a second direction to indicate the second mode.
  • the indicator is a disc, a portion of which is visible under a watch window.
  • the disc has two portions, one or the other being visible through the window, each portion comprising a symbol representative of one of the modes.
  • the main means of time indication are an hour hand and a minute hand
  • the secondary means of time indication are a GMT hand.
  • the first hour and the second hour correspond to hours according to two different time zones
  • the watch includes a date display configured to display the date according to the time zone, the time of which is displayed by the main time display means.
  • Changing the time zone can cause the date to change. It is therefore important that the date display is synchronized with the date in the time zone, the time of which is displayed by the main time display means.
  • control member is a crown with at least two axial positions.
  • a manipulation of the control member can then be a short press on the crown.
  • the invention also relates to a method PO for permuting the time display mode of the watch MT previously described, the first embodiment of which (the indicator IN of the time display mode is the second hand) is described below with reference to figures 2 and following.
  • the watch MT is initially in the first display mode: the main means of time indication PR indicate the time according to the first time zone, and the secondary means of time indication SE indicate the time according to the second time zone.
  • the time in the first time zone is 10:05 am
  • the time in the second time zone is 8:05 a.m.
  • the IN indicator of the time display mode being the second hand, it initially displays the current second, it will be said that it is in a first working position.
  • a step E1 the control member ET undergoes an initial actuation (in the example described, by this is meant that the crown undergoes a first short press).
  • the IN indicator then temporarily moves to a first position (here, it moves at 10 o'clock), to indicate that the MT watch is initially in the first display mode.
  • a step E2 if the control unit AND does not undergo any subsequent manipulation (here, a second short press) within a certain time, for example 5 seconds, then the indicator IN resumes its function for indicating the seconds and takes a second working position in which it advantageously indicates the second in progress.
  • a subsequent manipulation here, a second short press
  • the permutations can be immediately canceled by a new manipulation of the AND control member (here, by a third short press on the crown).
  • the watch MT includes a display of the dates QU and that the date associated with the main means of time indication PR changes after the permutations. It is therefore important that the date display QU always follow the time zone displayed by the main means of time indication PR.
  • the indicator IN of the display mode resumes its function of indicating the seconds and therefore repositions itself in a second working position where it indicates the current second.
  • the indicator is dedicated to indicating the time display mode. In this case, only step E3 occurs when the AND control member is manipulated.
