ABSTRACT:
The watch according to the present invention includes time-indicating means, time-setting means operable to set the time-indicating means, a setting shaft which is axially movable to first and second positions and arranged to be operatively connected to the time-setting means in the first position. Also included in the watch are rotatable calendar-indicating means provided with a circular series of teeth, a calendar-correcting pinion non-rotatably mounted on the setting shaft, a calendar-correcting shaft, which extends chordally at an angle to the setting shaft and has first and second end portions, first and second pinions non-rotatably mounted on the calendar-correcting shaft on the first and second end portions thereof, respectively.
In addition, the watch includes a mounting plate having an aperture in which the second end portion is mounted to permit a pivotal movement of the calendar-correcting shaft toward and away from said setting shaft between an operative position, in which the first pinion is in mesh with the calendar-correcting pinion, and at least one inoperative position in which the first pinion is disengaged from the calendar-correcting pinion. A bell crank lever serves to operatively connect between the setting shaft and the calendar-correcting shaft.
