    摘要: A device for finely adjusting the length of a bracelet inserted between two elements of the bracelet and includes an outer part attached to one, an inner part attached to the other and to slide in the outer part parallel to the longitudinal direction of the bracelet, causing the length of the bracelet to be varied, and a stop arranged to limit the travel of the inner part relative to the outer part so the bracelet cannot be extended beyond a maximum length. The outer part includes a wall having an immobilization hole on its inner side. The inner part includes a pivoting lever with a first end biased by a spring toward the outer part wall, permitting the first end to engage the immobilization hole, immobilizing the inner part relative to the outer part. The inner part has a control member permitting manual control of the lever.

    摘要: Disclosed is a timepiece component including at least one housing intended to receive at least one precious or non-precious stone and including at least one first end, referred to as the setting end, and a rail. The rail is located on the periphery of the housing, and is arranged to allow the stone or stones to be inserted into the rail at the first end of the housing, such that the stone or stones can slide in the rail along the longitudinal axis of the housing, and to hold the stone or stones once inserted into the rail in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing.

    摘要: The method for manufacturing timepiece hairsprings according to the invention comprises the following successive steps: a) forming hairsprings in a wafer, b) forming a thermal compensation layer on the hairsprings, c) identifying the hairsprings having a stiffness within a predetermined range, d) optionally, detaching from the wafer the hairsprings identified in step c), e) modifying the other hairsprings so that the stiffness of at least some of them is within the predetermined range, f) detaching from the wafer these other hairsprings and, if they have not been detached in step d), the hairsprings identified in step c). This method makes it possible to reduce manufacturing dispersions between the hairsprings.
