Watch with touch reading and setting of time functions
First Claim
1. A watch with visual and touch horometric functions, including :
- a case sealed by a crystal arranged above an analogue display dial and hand display means, said crystal being surrounded by a fixed bezela time-keeping circuit and at least one stepping motor for driving the hands;
a non-acoustic vibration generating device;
at least one power source supplying the timekeeping circuit, the stepping motor and the vibration generating device;
a set of twelve sensors arranged facing the twelve time positions and at least one external control element;
an electronic coding circuit associated with the time-keeping circuit, the sensors and the external control device to control the vibration generating device;
wherein the bezel is provided with twelve projections extending radially beyond the bezel and the case, said projections being arranged between the twelve sensors to guide a user'"'"'s finger towards a determined sensor.

Abstract
Watch with visual and touch horometric functions, including:
a case (1) sealed by a crystal (4) arranged above an analogue dial (5) surrounded by a fixed bezel (8)
a time-keeping circuit (10), a stepping motor (11);
a non-acoustic vibration generating device (20);
a power source (24) supplying the circuit (10), the motor (11) and the vibration generating device (20);
twelve sensors (C1 to C12) facing the twelve time positions and a control element (9);
an electronic coding circuit (25) associated with the circuit (10), the sensors (C1 to C12) and the control device (9) to control the vibration generating device (20);
wherein the bezel (8) has twelve projections (R1 to R12) being arranged between the twelve sensors (C1 to C12) which extend radially beyond the bezel (8) and the case (1), said projections (R1 to R12) to guide a user'"'"'s finger towards a determined sensor.
