An ashtray system for a cigarette, cigars, and pipes is provided. The ashtray system comprises a base with a clock tower secured to the base and extending in a general direction away from the base. A clock is mounted in the clock tower. A pair of ashtrays are formed in the base. A plurality of cigarette/cigar holders are formed in the base for holding cigarettes/cigars in a substantially vertical position with each holder extending into at least one of the ashtrays. A plurality of apertures are formed in the base for holding cigarettes/cigars in a substantially vertical position. At least one storage area is formed for holding a pack of cigarettes, a pipe, tobacco, or several cigars. At least one drawer compartment is formed for holding a cigar-cutter; a pipe-tamper and cleaner; and lighters.

A wristwatch including a watch case; a clock movement in said watch case and a dial. At least one part of a three-dimensional figure above the dial can be caused to move in a plane non-parallel to the dial by a shaft extending above the dial in a direction perpendicular to the dial. A device for driving the figure is arranged below the dial to control the movements of this shaft. The figure can be formed by a mechanical bird.

To fabricate an external timepiece element in which there is inserted at least one decoration, the decoration is formed of anterior and posterior parts respectively intended to emerge from the external element and to serve as a mechanism of anchoring the decoration in the external element. A master mold is provided, the master mold including a hollow pattern cavity matching dimensions of the anterior part of the decoration. The decoration is placed in the pattern cavity. The master mold is filled by the galvanic deposition of a metal. The external element obtained is removed from the master mold.

The present invention discloses a horologe, such as a watch or clock, in which a removable and interchangeable face can be inserted and removed from the horologe and replaced with another face without disconnecting components of the horologe or interfering with the horologe measuring time. In one embodiment, the horologe comprises a horological movement; a housing having a rim and a mount plate, a removable face for insertion into a faceplate compartment, and an inner transparent cover. A portion of the rim may be extendable away from the housing to reveal an opening to receive a removable face. In one embodiment, the horologe may comprise an extendable drawer, which is adapted for insertion into and selectably extendable from the faceplate compartment. In one embodiment, the horologe may comprise an outer bezel, which has open and closed positions for revealing and covering the opening of the faceplate compartment.
