    摘要: The invention relates to a watch having a variable dial, and more specifically a watch that provides the wearer with the possibility of partially changing the appearance of the dial. According to the invention, the watch has a dial (1) that has at least one opening (6, 7) occupied by a removable bezel (3, 5) and the watch further has a plurality of carrying arms (9, 10) disposed radially on a carousel (8), each arm end situated on the circumference carrying a bezel (3, 5) and the carousel (8) being able to rotate about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the dial (1) and passing through the center thereof.

    摘要: A method for producing an applique (1; 1′; 1″) for a timepiece dial, the applique (1; 1′; 1″) having at least two distinct portions (10, 20; 10′, 20′; 10″, 20″) made of a first material and a second material, respectively, the first and second materials being different, wherein the method
    includes a first phase (E1 to E4; E1′ to E4′) involving forming at least a second blank (20a; 20a′) made of the second material within or at least partially within a first blank (10a; 10a′) made of the first material so as to obtain a blank (1a; 1a′) of the applique for a timepiece dial,
    then a second phase of machining (E5, E6; E5′, E6′) each of the two blanks (10a, 20a; 10a′, 20a′), so as to modify the shape and/or the surface state of each of the first and second blanks of the applique blank (1a; 1a′).

    摘要: A method for fabricating a timepiece or jewellery component with a structured decoration: a ceramic base is made; mirror polishing is performed; laser and/or mechanical machining of a surface relief is carried out; a relief is coated with a first layer of a first metal decorative treatment and/or coloured decorative treatment material; prior to or after the coating, deep etching is performed to produce a first hollow decoration having a depth greater than the thickness of the first layer, penetrating the base beneath its apparent surface and beneath the valleys of the relief; laser ablation is performed on the first layer in pockets at the bottom of which the ceramic is revealed; all the visible surfaces of the component are coated with a second layer of a second material.

    摘要: The present invention provides a watch including a movement, a case housing the movement and an adjustable dial above the movement. The adjustable dial shows different patterns by adjustments. The adjustable dial includes an upper dial and a lower dial. The appearance of the watch can be adjusted due to different preferences and different occasions. By combining with the recognition technology, the watch of the present invention can be used as an encoder in a security system.

    摘要: A method for fabricating an applique for horology including a visible upper surface, and a lower surface for resting on a dial or a structure of a timepiece, and at least one foot projecting from the lower surface for attachment to such a dial or such a structure, according to which method, in a first operation, there is provided a profile or bar in which blanks of the feet and of the lower surface are machined, prior to cutting the profile or bar in a second operation, and then re-machining the upper surface, with at least one final diamond-polishing operation, wherein, during the first operation, at least two machining operations are performed in a cross so as to form a blank of each foot with a polygonal contour having facets.
