    Abstract: Method for authenticating a timepiece comprising measuring acoustic vibrations emitted by said timepiece to obtain an electrical signal indicating magnitude information comprising a variation of a magnitude of the measured acoustic vibrations as a function of time. The electrical signal comprises at least one specific tone associated with the presence of a quartz resonator in the timepiece. Method further comprises performing transform of electrical signal into frequency domain to obtain frequency-domain power spectrum indicating variation of power of electrical signal as function of frequency, processing the frequency-domain power spectrum so as to reveal at least one narrow peak in frequency-domain power spectrum corresponding to the at least one specific tone, and extracting at least one resonance frequency corresponding to said at least one narrow peak. Method further comprises comparing extracted at least one resonance frequency with at least one reference resonance frequency; and determining an authenticity of said timepiece.

    Abstract: An oscillating system for a mechanical timepiece includes an annular balance wheel arranged in a fixed manner coaxially in relation to a rotatably mounted balance staff. A helical spring encloses the balance staff and has its inner end fastened on the balance staff and its outer end fastened on a fastening device. The fastening device has a helical-spring connector with an inner clamping jaw and an outer clamping jaw, the inner clamping jaw being radially inside of the outer clamping jaw in relation to the axis of rotation of the balance staff. The outer end of the helical spring may be clamped firmly between a clamping surface of the inner clamping jaw and a clamping surface of the outer clamping jaw.

    Abstract: A precision regulating device for the regulator pointer of a timepiece includes a balance cock and an index regulator mounted on the balance cock such that the index regulator is pivotable about a regulator axis. A hairspring key arranged on the index regulator at a radial distance from the regulator axis allows changing the active length of a hairspring of the oscillating system of the timepiece in response to pivoting of the index regulator. The index regulator also includes a radially directed regulator pointer. A counterpressure spring including a resilient arm has one end region fastened on the balance cock and another free end region arranged so that it forces the regulator pointer, under prestressing, in the pivoting direction and holds it in abutment against a regulating screw arranged in a rotatable manner in a threaded bore of the balance cock or a component connected to the balance cock. The resilient arm has a holding-down region which can be positioned on an axial side of the regulator pointer relative to the regulator axis.

    Abstract: A control system for a cyclic process includes a pulse generator incorporating three rotatable gears for generating pulses. A first gear having n ferromagnetic teeth is mounted on a main generator shaft for generating a train of pulses in a magnetic perception head upon rotation of the main generator shaft, and also mounted on the main generator shaft is a second gear wheel having n + 1 teeth. The second gear wheel drivingly engages with a third gear wheel having n teeth which is mounted for rotation on another shaft, and the second and third gear wheels each carry a ferromagnetic element movement of which past respective further magnetic perception heads causes the generation of a single pulse during each rotation of the second and third gear wheels. The train of pulses is used for driving a counter to control the sequential operations of the cyclic process, and a coincidence between the pulses generated by the second and third gear wheels is used to reset the counter and initiate a succeeding cycle of the process.
