Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dial comprising a support, a mother-of-pearl sheet having an obverse and a cuff and covering at least partially the support, and at least one decorative element provided on the reverse side, said decorative element being arranged to be visible on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl leaf under the effect of a stimulus and invisible on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl leaf in the absence of said stimulus, said decorative element defining around it, on the reverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, at least a first empty zone and at least a second empty zone on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, opposite the first empty zone.
  • the present invention also relates to a timepiece comprising such a dial.
  • mother-of-pearl for the manufacture of dials is already known in the watchmaking field for its particular aesthetics.
  • the mother-of-pearl has a biological origin, iridescent reflections and a translucency which make each piece of mother-of-pearl unique.
  • the mother-of-pearl can have various intrinsic colors (eg white, gray, pink, green).
  • the mother-of-pearl can be colored by soaking in a dye bath.
  • a decoration can also be applied on the obverse (visible side by a user of the timepiece) or the reverse (back side, turned towards the inside of the timepiece) of the mother-of-pearl, the latter option based on the translucency properties of the material.
  • the visible decoration can be formed of a colored lacquer or a metallic deposit.
  • the lacquer can be applied by techniques usually used for lacquering such as spraying, pad printing or screen printing.
  • a metallic deposit can also be applied by physical vapor deposition techniques such as PVD.
  • Other inorganic layers, such as for example nitrides, carbides or oxides, can be applied by PVD or CVD.
  • the decor can even cover and hide the particular morphology of the mother-of-pearl.
  • the decoration even placed behind the mother-of-pearl dial, is always visible on the final piece.
  • the patent EP 1672436 mentions for example the manufacture of a mother-of-pearl dial of uniform metallic appearance by deposition of a metallic coating on the entire surface of the obverse of the dial.
  • the patent CH 559 924 describes a dial comprising a mother-of-pearl sheet under which elements of luminescent material are provided, visible at night and invisible by day so as not to be detected by the eye through the mother-of-pearl sheet.
  • the luminescent material is applied uniformly on the reverse of the coin and does not allow a complex decoration to appear on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl.
  • the patent CH 697 210 describes a dial comprising a mother-of-pearl sheet, the rear face of which comprises cavities filled with phosphorescent pigments which make it possible to make visible under the mother-of-pearl a decoration visible in the dark, whose design and light intensity can be chosen according to the shape and depth of the cavities.
  • the light intensity of the decoration in the dark must be limited in order to be able to guarantee the invisible nature of the phosphorescent pigments on the obverse of the coin when the dial is exposed to daylight.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a mother-of-pearl timepiece dial, comprising a decoration on the reverse of the piece and the decoration of which does not become visible on the obverse of the piece only under the effect of an external or internal stimulus, light, electric, or physical, for which the invisible character of said decoration on the obverse of the piece, when it is not under the effect of stimulus, has been improved.
  • the present invention also aims to provide a mother-of-pearl timepiece dial comprising several decorations on the reverse of the piece, visible on the obverse of the piece with different light intensities when they are under the effect of their stimulus, all the decorations being invisible on the obverse of the coin when they are not under the effect of their stimulus.
  • the invention relates to a dial comprising a support, a mother-of-pearl sheet having an obverse and a cuff and covering at least partially the support, and at least one decorative element provided on the reverse side of said mother-of-pearl sheet.
  • said decorative element being arranged to be visible on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet under the effect of a stimulus and invisible on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet in the absence of said stimulus, said decorative element defining around it, on the reverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, at least a first empty zone and at least a second empty zone on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, opposite the first empty zone.
  • the dial comprises at least one color compensation layer deposited on at least one of the first and second empty areas, the color of said color compensation layer being chosen so that the color difference ⁇ E in the CIE Lab color space between the color of the color compensation layer and the color of the decor element in the absence of said stimulus, perceived by a user looking at the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, is less than 3 , preferably less than or equal to 1.
  • the invisible nature of the decoration on the obverse of the coin, when it is not under the effect of its stimulus, is improved. It is then possible to use a setting of greater luminous intensity when it is under the effect of its stimulus, or several decorations giving different light intensities, some of which may be high, without the risk of seeing them appear on the obverse of the coin when the stimulus is not applied.
  • the present invention also relates to a timepiece comprising such a dial.
  • the present invention relates to a timepiece dial, comprising a support, a mother-of-pearl sheet having an obverse and a lapel and covering at least partially the support, and at least one decorative element provided on the reverse side, between the support and the mother-of-pearl leaf.
  • the support is preferably metallic. It can be made of brass, based on gold, yellow or white, or silver, or any other suitable metal. It can be assembled with the mother-of-pearl sheet carrying the decorative element by plating, gluing or any other suitable means.
  • the decorative element is arranged to be visible on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet under the effect of a stimulus and invisible on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet in the absence of said stimulus.
  • the decorative element defines around it, on the reverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, at least a first empty zone, that is to say an area of the reverse of the mother-of-pearl not occupied by said decorative element.
  • the decorative element also defines, by projection on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, opposite the first empty zone, at least a second empty zone, that is to say a zone on the obverse of the mother-of-pearl through which said decorative element, on the reverse side, does not appear.
  • the dial comprises at least one color compensation layer deposited on at least one of the first and second empty areas, the color of said color compensation layer being chosen so that the color difference ⁇ E in the CIE Lab color space between the colors of the color compensation layer and of the decoration element in the absence of said stimulus, perceived by a user looking at the obverse of the mother-of-pearl sheet, is less than 3, preferably less than or equal to 1.
  • the decorative element comprises stimulus-reactive particles, namely phosphorescent or photochromic particles to be sensitive to a light stimulus, electromromic particles to be sensitive to an electrical stimulus, or thermochromic particles to be sensitive to a variation of temperature.
  • stimulus-reactive particles namely phosphorescent or photochromic particles to be sensitive to a light stimulus, electromromic particles to be sensitive to an electrical stimulus, or thermochromic particles to be sensitive to a variation of temperature.
  • the decorative element is obtained from a lacquer or a reactive ink containing an epoxy or polyurethane binder, to which are added the reactive particles.
  • the size of the reactive particles can be between 0.5 ⁇ m and 100 ⁇ m, and preferably between 10 ⁇ m and 50 ⁇ m.
  • Inorganic or organic additives can be used to modify the shade of the reactive lacquer and achieve the desired color if necessary, its texture or its optical properties.
