Abstract

The invention relates to a reversible watch consisting of a middle (1) comprising a first face (10) with a first time-indicating display and a second face (11) which is disposed opposite said first face. According to the invention, a turning mechanism (20, 21, 22, 23) is used to turn the middle (1) around a pivot axis (201-211; 221-231) which is parallel to the 6/12 axis of the watch, such that the wearer can choose to display the first face or the second face. The aforementioned turning mechanism comprises a pivot arm (20, 21; 22, 23) on each side of the middle, which can be used to move the pivot axis. Moreover, the middle (1) is connected to the arm (20, 21; 22, 23) in such a way that it can pivot around the pivot axis (201-211; 221-231). The above-mentioned arms are sufficiently long such that the middle can be turned over without the winding crown or any other buttons coming into contact with other parts (17) of the watch.
