Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a watch in which at least part of the clothing serves as a substrate for a decorative coating.
  • Watches have already been proposed for a long time topped with a decorative coating.
  • a mosaic look is given to the dial or to the bezel of a watch by making it undergo a guilloche operation which consists in decorating the dial with engraved lines, hollowed out and crisscrossed.
  • the guillochage is mainly applied to parts manufactured in large series and leaves a monotonous impression ill suited to high-end watches.
  • Document FR-A-1 002 236 presents a watch strap with an invisible dial.
  • the dial is formed or decorated so as to continue the bracelet or appear to continue it. If the bracelet is a fabric or a leather for example, the dial could only be decorated in trompe l'oeil, that is to say covered with a thin thickness of fabric or a thin sheet of leather which will really appear to be the continuation of the fabric or leather forming the bracelet, as the document cited teaches.
  • the watch described in application EP-A-0 294 661 presents a watch of which at least part of the clothing is surmounted by a mosaic-type coating comprising a plurality of pavers juxtaposed and arranged on a bed serving as a means of fixing said paving stones to said clothing, the upper part of the interstices separating said paving stones being left empty.
  • the bed is a paste of gold on which the pavers are placed and which is melted to weld the pavers to the clothing.
  • the present invention provides means which, while giving the watch a high-end aesthetic reduce the manufacturing cost by implementing a way of doing better suited to industrial manufacturing.
  • the decorative coating surmounting at least part of the clothing of the watch according to the invention is characterized in that this coating has a plurality of metal wires entirely covering the substrate, the wires being at least partially interlaced with one another. and applied to a bed disposed between said substrate and said coating to serve as means of fixing said wires on said substrate.
  • Figure 1a is a top view of a watch dial 1 decorated according to the invention and according to a first arrangement.
  • the dial has an opening 2 for the passage of the axes carrying the hands and hour markers 3.
  • the decorative coating has a plurality of metal wires 5 and 6 partially nested one on the other. in the others.
  • the wires 5 and 6 are twisted two by two as shown in FIG. 2 which shows a twist 4.
  • twists are prepared 4 which are then placed side by side on a bed which will serve as means for fixing the wires on a plate forming the substrate of the dial, as will appear in FIGS. 4 and 5. Once the twists are fixed to the substrate, the dial is cut out in its final form shown in FIG. 1a.
  • the wires 5 and 6 forming the twist 4 will preferably be made of precious metals, for example gold.
  • the wires 5 and 6 can be made of gold of the same color and thus present a uniform decoration. But it is understood that the wire 5 could be in yellow gold and the wire 6 in white gold, thus creating an alternating decor.
  • the invention is not limited to twists comprising only two wires, these twists possibly comprising three or four wires for example.
  • the present invention is however not limited to the use of wires made of precious metals. It could be other materials, for example steel, titanium, organic or mineral fibers.
  • FIG. 1a shows that the twists 4 all have the same inclination, that is to say that they are all wound in the same direction.
  • Figure 1b shows another arrangement which shows the juxtaposition of twists 4 and 4 ′ where the twist 4 is wound in one direction and the twist 4 ′ in the opposite direction. We thus obtain another design and, consequently, another aesthetic effect.
  • FIG 3 is a section along line III-III of Figure 1a.
  • the covering made of partially nested metallic wires 5 and 6 rests on a bed 7 which serves as means of fixing the wires on the clothing 8 which it is a question of covering.
  • the wires 5 and 6 are made of gold and the clothing 8 is also made of gold, use will be made of a solder paste commonly used by goldsmiths and itself containing gold.
  • the clothing 8 to be coated is coated with this paste forming the base bed 7, then the wires are deposited on the paste.
  • the object is passed into the oven at a temperature of the order of 800 ° C., which welds the wires on the substrate.
  • FIG. 3 also shows that the weld bed does not reach the top of the wires 5 and 6. In this way, the wires appear as roughness on the exterior surface of the decoration, a surface which then takes on a grainy appearance giving the watch has a particularly beautiful aesthetic.
  • Figure 4 is a variant of what has been explained in connection with Figure 3.
  • the surface of the decoration is flattened by grinding the top of the wires 5 and 6.
  • the surface is thus made more regular while retaining the grainy appearance research.
  • Figure 5 is a top view of a watch where the decoration according to the invention covers the middle-bezel 9 of this watch.
  • the decoration according to the invention covers the middle-bezel 9 of this watch.
  • Threads 5 and 6 which were discussed above.
  • a covering will preferably be achieved by means of the metallic fabric which will be presented below.
  • the weld bed of which we have spoken is deposited on the middle part 9, the fabric of metallic wires is applied to this bed, the solder is melted to fix this fabric on the middle. After solidification of the weld, the fabric is cut according to the desired annular shape.
  • Figure 5 shows a dial without decoration. It will however be understood that the dial could also be covered by the coating of the invention.
  • Figure 6 shows another way of executing the decor according to the invention.
  • the wires making up the decoration are intertwined to form the metallic fabric 10.
  • Each wire 11 to 16 is wound in a spiral.
  • the wire 11 is interlaced with the wire 12, the wire 12 with the wire 13, the wire 13 with the wire 14, etc.
  • the fabric can be placed as it is on the bed above the substrate. It may also have undergone a crushing operation before welding.
  • Such a fabric is known, for example under the name of Milanese fabric and is used to make bracelets. Descriptions can be found by consulting certain documents such as, for example, documents EP-A-0 040 504, CH-A-497 150 or even CH-A-629 657.
  • wire used can be of any cross section: round, triangular, square, star, etc.
  • the decoration according to the invention is not limited to the watch itself, but could also take on the links making up the strap of this watch.
  • the watch obtained in the manner just described gives the impression of a very rich object both by the materials used and by the texture obtained in bas-relief.
  • the decoration described lends itself particularly well to industrial production.
