    Abstract: Universal device for the winding and time-setting of a watch with oscillating resonator, including a rewinding and state corrector, including an automatic winding mechanism, state measurer relative to a reference, stoppage monitor to observe the stoppage of the resonator, running monitor of the resonator, controller to identify the stoppage time displayed, compute the time remaining until a synchronisation between the actual time indicated by the reference and the stoppage time, and, when this remaining time has elapsed, activate the winding mechanism to rewind the storage means of the watch, and, following activation of the winding mechanism, await the determination of the stabilisation of the nominal running of the resonato by these monitors before allowing a fine adjustment of the state of the watch.

    Abstract: A coiling limitation device for a timepiece barrel includes at least one non-return notch arranged to cooperate with a sliding flange of the spring of the barrel, which is integrated in a watch including a resonator cooperating with an escapement mechanism. This device includes an acoustic device for the acoustic monitoring of the coiling of the barrel of a watch positioned on a receptacle included by the device, which acoustic devices are arranged to identify a click noise during each start of cooperation between the sliding flange and a notch. The device includes piloting devices arranged to stop the coiling of the barrel at the instant of the perception of the click noise or the repetition of the click noise.

    Abstract: An arrangement for the holding and vibration transmission of an acoustic radiating membrane (10) in a striking or musical watch (1) case (2). The case includes at least one crystal (3) mounted on a middle (4) and a back (5) mounted on a side opposite the middle. The acoustic radiating membrane is held in a portion of the watch case, such as the middle by at least one connection part (12) disposed between a peripheral rim of the membrane or an edge element (11) of the membrane and the middle by acting for the holding of the membrane in a direction parallel to the plane of the watch. The connection part may be a screw screwed into a threaded opening (14) of the middle and coming into contact with the edge element of the membrane.

    Abstract: A universal device is for preparation of a watch with a gain/loss correction crown and an oscillating resonator. The device includes winding and a gain/loss corrector with a robotic manipulator for manoeuvring the crown. It also includes an adjustment device with a gain/loss correction device including a gain/loss-corrector oscillator generating an oscillation to subject the watch to an oscillation at a correction frequency NC and/or to a modulated movement. The gain/loss correction device includes a gain/loss controller that controls the oscillation of the gain/loss-corrector oscillator, interfaced with a device to measure the gain/loss of the watch. The gain/loss correction device also includes an automatic winder with a watch-holder stand subjected to the oscillations or movements generated by the gain/loss-corrector oscillator.
