Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of watchmaking, and more particularly to a timepiece with digital display.
- Timepieces with digital display are known to those skilled in the art.
- a limitation of these timepieces is the fact that the digital display consists of a rigid piece, on which the time units are represented on the same plane. This arrangement gives a monotonous and not very exclusive aspect to timepieces with digital display, the appearance of which is similar from one brand and from one quality to another.
- the present invention overcomes the drawbacks of the prior art by proposing a timepiece with a versatile digital display, including display segments for the different time units (date, hours, minutes, seconds , etc.) are placed in separate physical structures (housings or other structures, such as rings, etc.).
- This arrangement allows infinite variation of the relative positions of the different display segments, creating optical games and fantasy effects hitherto impossible.
- the placement of the display segments in separate physical structures makes it possible to vary the presentation as desired, thus breaking the monotonous and not very exclusive character of timepieces with conventional digital display.
- the subject of the present invention is a timepiece with digital display, characterized in that the display segments (1) for the different time units are placed in at least two separate physical structures (2).
- Said distinct physical structures can be linked together by an additional element, for example a strap or a bracelet.
- each of said physical structures (2) contains, in addition to the corresponding display segment, a quartz movement (3).
- the embodiments containing a movement in each separate physical structure (2) can be provided with mechanical or non-mechanical synchronization means.
- the timepiece according to the invention comprises two separate physical structures (2 ′) and (2 ′′), one comprising the hour display segment ( 1 ') and for the other the minute display segment (l' ').
- the timepiece according to the invention comprises three distinct physical structures, one comprising the hour display segment, the second the minute display segment , and for the third the seconds display segment.
- each of said separate physical structures comprising a display segment corresponds to the eye of a ring.
- the size of said rings allows the user to wear them either 75 on the same finger, either on different fingers, adjacent or not.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a front view of one of the separate physical structures according to the invention, 85 corresponding to the eye of a ring;
- Figure 2 illustrates a top view of said separate physical structure, showing the display segment;
- FIG. 3 illustrates a front view and in section of 90 said distinct physical structure along the axis AA of FIG. 2, detailing the display segment and the quartz movement;
- Figure 4 illustrates a side view of said separate physical structure;
- 95 - Figure 5 illustrates a timepiece according to the invention comprising two distinct physical structures each corresponding to the eye of a ring, seen from above. The effect is similar to that obtains if the rings are worn on adjacent fingers 100, with the hour display segment on the left and the second display segment on the right.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a front view of one of the separate physical structures according to the invention, 85 corresponding to the eye of a ring
- Figure 2 illustrates a top view of said separate physical structure, showing the display segment
- FIG. 3 illustrates a front view and in section of
- FIG. 6 illustrates said timepiece seen in perspective, the two distinct physical structures 105 corresponding to the eye of a ring being placed in a row. The effect is similar to that obtained if the rings are worn on the same finger, with the hour display segment at the top and the seconds display segment at the bottom. 110
