The invention concerns a device for controlling a time function or a non-time related function including at least two push-buttons (A,B) each provided with a stem (A,B) and a head (A,B), said push-buttons (A,B) being able to move axially between a first inactive rest position and a second position in which they control the function, characterized in that the stems (A,B) of the two push-buttons (A,) extend side by side and parallel to each other. The invention also concerns a timepiece fitted with this control device.
