ABSTRACT:
A timepiece, includes a frame supporting a drive element, a time base and drive trains pivotably mounted on the frame and arranged so as to drive at least one display train intended to carry an element displaying information, such as the time. The movement also includes a fixed gear, firmly attached to the frame, with which a toothed element of the display train is arranged to mesh, and a drive element having first and second kinematic links, respectively, with one of the drive trains and with the toothed element so as to drive the latter in translation in a first direction along the fixed gear. Preferably, the drive element is embodied in the form of a deformable element, and the movement also includes a retrograde mechanism for driving the toothed element rapidly in the opposite direction by means of the drive element.
