Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1217470A1] The watch has a disk on which are numbers 0 to 9 regularly spaced around it and first and second independent pointers, at least two of the three components rotate. The pointers are respectively arranged at exterior and interior of disk periphery so as to respectively indicate the tens and unit figures of displayed data. The first pointer is fixed and second pointer rotates around a common geometric axis. The disk and its pointers indicate the last two digits of the year . The disk is linked to a first drive which increments a unit every ten years and the second pointer is linked to a drive which increments it by a unit every year.. For month indication the disk may be linked to a first drive which increments it to bring the figures 1,2,3,and 0 in line with the fixed pointer respectively at the end of 9,19,29,30, and as needed 31 days. The second pointer is linked to a second drive which increments it by a unit each day.
