Abstract
The time-setting device includes a stem (8) capable of driving by friction a motion work wheel (29). The stem (8) ends in a knob (31) which rests against an annular flange (32) made under the motion work wheel. When the stem (8) is in a pushed in position, the knob runs idle. When this stem is pulled out, the knob drives the motion work to set the time of the hour (23) and minute (22) hands.
