ABSTRACT:
To provide a timepiece having a bezel which is easy to set in position, and which is not inadvertently rotatable after it has been set in position. A bezel is rotatably mounted on the bezel mounting portion of a case band. A click member is held vertically movably in the stepped hole of the case band and is urged toward the engaging portion of the bezel composed of a plurality of serrations. An operating member which has a depression having an oblique push-up surface and a closing surface contiguous to its push-up surface is held movably in a accommodating portion formed in the case band and crossing the lower end of the stepped hole at right angles thereto. The operating member is urged to its position in which its closing surface closes the lower end of the stepped hole. A stopper member capable of entering and leaving the depression along its push-up surface is positioned between the click member and the operating member. The member is movable to restrict the movement of the click member by the stopper member supported on its closing surface, while releasing the click member from such restriction and permitting its vertical movement by allowing the member to drop into the depression.
