It comprises a casing ring (7) supporting the movement (5) around which an elastic binding (10) is removably mounted. The binding is of rectangular cross section with the smaller sides of the rectangle being pressed against the case-band (1) and the back cover (11) when these elements are secured together. The binding includes an orifice (17) situated proximate two U-formed openings provided in the periphery of the case-band and back cover in order to accomodate the stem (15) of a control element.
