Abstract (en)

[origin: US4653930A] The face of the watch bears a design and has windows set in it in areas which do not affect the design itself. The disk which, in a normal watch, serves to display the day of the week, bears a design corresponding to the central portion of the design on the face. The ring which, in a normal watch, serves to display the date, bears a design corresponding to the portion of the face design which is not on the disk. Owing to this arrangement the design on the face only appears every 217 days without a parasitic image being present in the windows. The rest of the time the disk and the ring cause portions of the design to appear in the windows which give a confused overall appearance.
