  • This horological component 10 can be a bezel, a bezel disc, but more generally any covering element, a case, a case back, a middle part, a dial, a decorative plate, or a bracelet link.
  • This component can also be a component of the movement, such as a date disc for example.
  • the invention relates more particularly to a timepiece component 10 having at least one recessed relief defined by a recessed surface with respect to the main surface 5 of the timepiece component, recessed relief generally called a recess.
  • the main surface 5 is considered here as the visible surface of the largest surface area of the timepiece component.
  • a second recessed surface 20 or recess 20 is more precisely formed in a first surface 1 of the timepiece component, which constitutes all or part of the main surface 5.

  • the recess 20 is through, that is to say that it crosses the watch component 10 on either side.
  • the invention relates to the method of manufacturing such a timepiece component.
  • This method comprises a first step consisting in preparing a timepiece component 10 comprising a main surface 5 and a first surface 1 in which at least one recess 20 is arranged.
  • This element resulting from the first stage has substantially the final shapes and dimensions of the watch component; it will already be called a watch component, even if it is not completely finished.
  • this first step is implemented in a known manner, by any process of the state of the art.
  • the first surface 1 is considered in the invention to be a surface in which at least one recess is arranged and which is affected by the rest of the process, that is to say that its surface condition will be modified.
  • This surface condition will be characterized in particular, without limitation, by the roughness, particularly by means of the standardized roughness parameters Ra and / or Str, and / or by the gloss, or even by the color, as will be detailed by following on the basis of several examples.
  • the first step may consist in manufacturing a ceramic bezel disc or a metal decorative plate, comprising recesses.
  • the concept of the invention consists in implementing a second finishing / termination step, which makes it possible to finalize the surface states of the watch component, in particular which makes it possible to easily obtain different surface states between the first and the second surface. of the watch component.
  • the second step of the invention more specifically implements a step of terminating the timepiece component 10 inducing a modification of the surface state of the first surface, for example aiming to decrease the specular reflection, without affecting or affecting as little as possible the at least one recess (that is to say the at least one recessed surface), or noticing any possible part of the main surface that has been spared.

  • the distance d does not exceed 80 ⁇ m, or even 50 ⁇ m, even 20 ⁇ m. Of course, this distance can be zero.
  • termination step we mean a modification of the surface condition of the first surface 1 by interposed media.
  • the particularity of this termination process is to allow such a result to be obtained without masking protecting the recesses, with so-called “free” media and abrasives; the contact between the abrasives and the surface to be finished is made by impacts and not by friction as in the case of polishing.
  • This step includes, for example, the mechanical stressing of an abrasive mixture by impacts, for example by setting in vibratory, oscillatory or rotary movement, for example in a tank (tribofinishing). It also includes, for example, without limitation, barreling, and / or trovalisation, and / or sandblasting and / or micro-blasting and / or wet spraying of said first surface 1.

  • the method of manufacturing a timepiece component 10 for a timepiece may include an intermediate step between the two aforementioned steps, consisting in modifying the surface condition of all or part of the main surface 5 and possibly of the second surface by shrinkage 20 aimed at maximizing specular reflection.
  • This modification can form surfaces of homogeneous and isotropic topography.
  • this step can correspond to a polishing of the surfaces in order to make them shiny.
  • the second termination step modifies the surface condition of the first surface 1 so as to give it a homogeneous and isotropic topography with reduced specular reflection.
  • this termination step is a step of matifying the first surface 1 previously polished.
  • Such an approach thus makes it possible to obtain a timepiece component 10 comprising a first mat surface 1, and a second recessed surface 20 whose state of surface is at least partially unchanged.
  • Such an approach makes it possible in particular to obtain a timepiece component 10 which may include a first mat surface 1, and a third surface 2 forming a bottom, the surface state of which is unchanged.
  • the second termination step modifies the surface state of all or part of the main surface 5 to give the first surface 1 a homogeneous and isotropic topography, while reducing or even minimizing its specular reflection.
  • the first step of manufacturing a timepiece component 10 can be followed by an intermediate step, such as a step of depositing a coating in the at least one recess or recessed surface, in particular of the third surface 2, monolayer or multilayer , in particular by a step by PVD (acronym coming from the process known by the English name "Physical Vapor Déposition”), by CVD (acronym coming from the process known by the English name “Chemical Vapor Déposition”), by ALD (acronym coming from the process known by the English name "Atomic Layer Déposition”), by LBL (acronym from the process known by the English name "Layer by Layer”), by ink-jet, by dip-coating, by brush, by dispenser, by spraying, by nebulization or by sol-gel process.

  • the figure 4 is a photograph of a timepiece component 10 taken at the interface between the first surface 1 and the third surface 2 of a recess, corresponding to an example comprising a recess according to the figure 1a , which will be detailed later.
  • the method may include a complementary step after the second termination step, for example a diamond-setting step to make a portion of the main surface, in particular the first surface 1, shiny, for example a portion forming a bevel.
