A timepiece including a case that houses a main plate of a movement surmounted by a dial, and a support including fastening studs arranged on an upper face of the main plate for mounting the dial. The dial and the support include an angular locking mechanism for locking an angular position of the dial on the support, and the dial is assembled to the main plate by at least one flexible fastening element integral with the dial and arranged in the plane of the dial.

Timepiece provided with a dial and associated fastening method

An electronic device including a case includes a glass and a back cover, the electronic device including at least one electronic module configured to calculate a current time, to execute plural functions and to provide information relating to the current time and to the functions to a display disposed underneath the glass. The electronic device further including a controller including at least one contact area allowing a user to act on the at least one electronic module, the at least one contact area being monitored by the electronic module at a scanning frequency.

Method for managing operations on an electronic device

A portable object including a case in which at least one electronic module is placed, the at least one electronic module configured to execute plural functions and to provide information relating to the functions to a display, the electronic device further including a controller including at least one contact area allowing a user to act on the at least one electronic module, each function being associated with a predetermined time threshold.

Method of operating an electronic device

The invention concerns a timepiece, specifically a wrist watch, including a fluid resistant container (19) provided with a framework (20) of plastic material housing the horometric components. Such fluid resistant container (19) is closed by a crystal (22) and by a cell holder compartment lid (40) keyed to the framework and it is fitted out with a stem (26) on such framework rendered fluid resistant. The container is assembled and maintained in place in a metallic case (2) by snap securing means, in particular a bezel (18) which axially compresses a flange (20a) of the framework (20) and a toroidal seal (42) against the case (2). The case can thus be manufactured with loose tolerances. The assembled fluid resistant container and horological movement can be tested prior to its assembly in the case (2).
