The present invention relates to an analogic display module for a watch movement. This module comprises a dial (1) provided with a time graduation (2) and hands (3,4,5) to display the time. It comprises a display for the rhythm of the tides (50) presenting six juxtaposed zones 49 of different thicknesses cooperating with a hand (52) the axis of which is located on the line separating the two middle zones (49) and making one revolution in a time corresponding approximately to the time interval separating two sucessive high tides.

Analogic display module for a watch movement

A dial 1 provided with an hour graduation 2 cooperating with hands 3, 4, 5, intended to be driven by the hand setting of a movement on which the module can be fixed. This dial 1 comprises further a circular twenty-four hours graduation 11 cooperating simultaneously on the one hand with a hand 13 driven in rotation by a mechanism of the module at a speed of one complete revolution per twenty-four hours and on the other hand a tides disc 12 driven in rotation by the mechanism of the module at a speed of one complete turn for each moon cycle.

Display module for watch movement

The invention relates to an analogic display module for watch movement which comprises several movement sector displays each comprising a movable display member (7-10) cooperating with at least one fixed mark (2-5). The time indications given by each sector display relate to each other sequentially fractions of days or hours following after without discontinuity.

Analogic display module for watch movement

The clock comprises an electronic part including a quartz oscillator controlling a motor. The motor drives, through a wheelwork, both continually running hands and stoppable hands. By means of a manually operated actuator, the stoppable hands can be operatively connected to, or disconnected from, the motor, or reset to zero. With the motor running, the continually running hands can be set to a desired time by means of a hand setting actuator. The crystal-controlled drive provides for high accuracy and the analog indication of the time and of the clocked intervals make reading convenient and fast.
