Problems solved by technology

However, in this rotating bezel system, the annular retaining ring does not ensure a good braking moment between the rotating bezel and the outer wall of the case middle part
In addition, when the rotating bezel rotates around the case middle, the meshing of the various elements of the system can cause annoying noises for the user, detracting from the quality perception of the quality of the watch

Embodiment Construction

[0030] figure 1 A watch 1 provided with a watch case 2 is shown. The watch case 2 generally includes a watch case middle part 4. The case 2 also includes an annular rotating bezel system 6 and a timepiece movement extending in a plane. For the sake of clarity, the timepiece movement is omitted in the figure. The ring-shaped rotating bezel system 6 is rotatably mounted on the middle part 4 of the watch case. Preferably, as Figure 1 to 3 As shown, the circular rotating bezel system 6 is composed of independent modules. The ring-shaped rotating bezel system 6 is clamped on the middle part 4 of the watch case, for example, which will be described in detail below.

[0031] Such as figure 1 As shown, the middle part 4 of the watch case is annular. The middle part 4 of the watch case includes an outer cylindrical surface 8. Such as image 3 As shown, the outer cylindrical surface 8 is provided with a circumferential shoulder defined by the side wall 12a and the base 12b. This cir...

Abstract

The invention relates to an annular ring (16) for holding a rotating bezel system (6). The annular retaining ring (16) is intended to cooperate with an external cylindrical surface (8) of a case middle part (4) of a watch case (2) to allow rotation of the rotating bezel (14) on the case middle part (4), the annular ring (16) including a device (26) for guiding rotation of the rotating bezel (14) around the case middle part (4); wherein the annular ring (16) further includes a device (28) configured to brake rotation of the rotating bezel (14) around the case middle part (4) and to dampen sound.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an annular retaining ring for a rotating bezel system. [0002] The present invention also relates to an annular rotating bezel system including the retaining ring. [0003] The present invention also relates to a watch case, which includes a watch case middle part and an annular rotating bezel system rotatably mounted on the watch case middle part. [0004] The invention also relates to a watch including a watch case. The watch is, for example, a diving watch, but this is not restrictive within the scope of the invention. Background technique [0005] The known annular rotating bezel system is provided with an annular retaining ring for the system, which annular retaining ring is intended to cooperate with the outer cylindrical surface of the middle part of the watch case to allow the rotating bezel to rotate on the middle part of the watch case. For example, the European patent application EP2672333A1 discloses such an annular retain...
