the wheel 19 of the barrel 20 on which resin products is the I ' 11 hour hand. The pin 30 is fixed on the I 'frame 13, as I' is the central pin 16, such as by riveting, screwing or welding.Can be imagined that the pin 16, as the others too, harbor material by molding the bottom-middle 7 with i ' frame 13. The tenon is then are morning plastic about which are mounted & rotating the various mobile.The wheel 31 and the pinion 33 close the briskness 2 which is movable by the pinion 34 of a mobile 6 which further comprises a wheel 35 itself driven by the pinion 36 of a movable motor 5 comprising a magnetized rotor 37. as shown in the fig. well. 4, 5 and 6 the mobiles have pivots rotating Sub bearings practices on the one hand into the plastic material of the bottom 7 and secondly in a bridge 38. For example, regarding the mobile 6, the lower bearing is constituted by a bore 39 embodied in a plug 40 fills an opening 41 of I ' frame 13. The plug is obtained their wages of I ' injection of the bottom 7. moving the motor 5 is pivoted in the same way that the mobile 6 by means of a plug 51. As shown in fig.. 5, I-' magnet 37 is surrounded by a solid-core

The pinion 46 is driven by the pinion 48 when the rod 49 is pulled & for the I ' work of the watch. This is a collective of the tenon 69 50 on which the movable wheel 31 3 which

By

[102]

exempie

[103]

, the middle part 7 is made of a material selected from the group consisting of I ' hydrofunctional styrol butadiene latexes (absolute) and ice is made in a transparent acrylic resin (PMMA-). Means are provided for assembling the ice 8 and the middle 7, these means comprising an area 23

coat comprised of a mixture thereof heat sealable to each other (see fig. 4, 5 and 6). The reader will advantageously applies to a description of the technique in EP-b-0,101 663 (US-4,558 957). Wis-II is therefore not necessary 6tendre herein foremost on this method.However, as the watch that I ' sought

[106]

iciest

[107]

produce ultra thin, less than about 4 mm total thickness, this will use a very thin ice also, at least in the central region 25 covering the needles 10 and 11, the decoding apparatus 24 being thicker

periph

[109]

. For rigidifying the ice 8, there is provided of I ' equipping a reinforcing annular rib 26 as seen on the tomographic slice of fig.. 3, 4, 5 and 6. As shown in these drawings, goes this rib 26 presses the dial 12 eplerenone in bowl. Prompting the resulting contact between the ice and the dial in the wide part 24 of this ice, thereby 6vite scratch of the dial. It should be noted also that as otherwise ice 8 sinks, the pin 16 is in contact with the lower side of said ice in one of

ex6cution

[111]

d6ja described in the document ch b. 639,812.It should be noted finally that the dial bowl shaped continued two goals: the first to be made more rigid and that then of household in its peripheral area of the watch thick components & i.e. the working members (Figures 4 and 5), the mechanism for the L-I ' time (fig.. 6) and the stack which see the I ' location 60 in fig. 2. note that a dial bowl shaped tee described Sub the document ch b. 620,081.Thus the construction newly laid d6crite makes it provide a wristwatch ultra-thin plastic with adjustable stiffness is just as good as if the

A ultra-thin wristwatch includes a back cover-caseband and a crystal in plastic material. The case is reinforced by a metallic armature. Such armature, in addition to serving as fastening point for a bracelet, is used as baseplate on which is secured at least one central stud around which pivot the hours and minutes hands.
