ABSTRACT:
The dial (4) of the watch is fitted with an indicator (10), preferably with a hand (11), which displays the function fulfilled by a control crown (8), respectively, in each axial position of the crown, including a highly water resistant position in the case of a screwed-in crown. The indicator is controlled by axial movements of a sleeve (15) secured to the crown, via a transmission mechanism (30) including a slide block (35) that is mobile parallel to an axis of rotation (14) of the crown. The hand is secured to a pinion (32) meshed with a rack (34) arranged on a slide block. The slide block includes a flexible part (38) between a back part that slides in a groove (36), and a front arm (39) provided with a lateral finger (40) engaged in an annular groove of the sleeve. This transmission is compact and facilitates assembly and removal.
