  • calendar watches capable of displaying the day and date calendar are broadly sold on the world market. Almost all of these marketed watches are provided with a quick correction mechanism for date calendar display, while, for performing a day calendar display correction, the operator must turn the watch hands as in the case of a time-setting job.
  • a representative day calendar corrector operates in such a way that the winding stem is drawn out to set it at its correction service position where by tuming the stern in one direction, the date calendar display is corrected as desired and by turning it in the opposite direction, the day calendar display is corrected again as desired, thus providing a very convenience to the user of the watch.
  • this kind of modern calendar display correction mechanism comprises two clutch wheels, a number of additional transmission wheels or massive idlers, which requires as a whole an appreciably increased space occupied by the correction mechanism within the highly crowded inside space of the watch, in addition to the thus caused increase in the number of constituent parts.
  • Some of these requires a rather increased thickness of the part or a substantially increased occupying area thereof which invites necessarily an increase of the outline dimensions of the watch with an increased manufacturing cost and a complicated structure thereof.

  • This design will allow to perform an escapement of the resilient strip by deflecting resiliently downwards in the case of reversed rotation of the wheel 1 17 or at the time of calendar correction job performed by the day star wheel a. Date drive pawl member 117a can perform an escapement movement by deflecting inwardly.

Date drive wheel 117 is arranged to rotate counter-clockwise in FIG. 6 at a complete revolution per day, and the day drive wheel 151 is thereby rotatingly fed by two tooth pitches through the action of day drive pawl 117b. In this way, day star wheel 115a is fed always one tooth pitch through the action of the wheel 151, regardless of the jumpered position of day star wheel 115a either at its imaginary line position or at its full line one shown in FIG. 6.
