Abstract

A timepiece movement is provided, including a first regulating member and a first escapement connected by a first train to a first energy source, where the first train, the first escapement, the first regulating member, and the first energy source together define a first assembly; a second regulating member and a second escapement connected by a second train to a second energy source, where the second train, the second escapement, the second regulating member, and the second energy source together define a second assembly; at least one differential gear configured to ensure a kinematic connection between the first and the second assemblies; a display of the current time; and a mechanism for stopping and allowing operation of one of the regulating members, where the differential gear carries the display to display the current time regardless of which of the regulating members is operating.
