Watches comprising a movement having several planes are known from the state of the art. Thus known for example CH 60 660 which describes a wristwatch having a box of elongated shape and whose bottom is bent in relation to the conformation of a human arm. The movement is mounted on a large bent plate so as to form several adjacent faces of a prism and extending from one end to the other of the upper face of the bottom, in order to properly use the capacity of the box. . The large plate is bent twice and has a median part carrying the axes of all the moving parts except the axis of the balance and two extreme parts inclined with respect to this median part and one of which carries the major part of the serving organs. when reassembling and setting the time, while the other carries the axis of the balance and its accessories, the fork of the exhaust being bent to redeem the difference in level between the escape wheel and the corresponding members of the axis of the balance.
[0003] EP 1 532 493 describes a timepiece movement in two complementary modules for producing a curved watch so as to follow the shape of a wrist of a wearer.

The characteristics of the invention will appear more clearly on reading the description of several embodiments given solely by way of example, in no way limiting with reference to the schematic figures, in which:
Fig. 1 is a partial side view of a watch movement having an automatic winding mechanism in which an oscillating weight is inclined relative to a platen representing a reference plane; and
Fig. 2 shows a partial side view of a watch movement comprising a manual winding mechanism in which a winding crown is inclined.
As illustrated in FIG. 1, a watch movement comprises a plate comprising two parallel and opposite surfaces defining a reference plane A, the movement comprising watch components supported by the plate and able to be rotated about axes 5 perpendicular to the reference plane A. The movement 1 further comprises a display zone 2 disposed in a plane parallel to the reference plane A. The movement comprises an automatic winding mechanism comprising an oscillating mass 3 arranged to oscillate about another axis 6 inclined by relative to the axes perpendicular to the reference plane A, in a plane B inclined with respect to the reference plane A.
The oscillating mass 3 extends to define a plane B other than the reference plane A, the plane B intercepting the reference plane A by an angle of about 5 °.
As illustrated in FIG. 2, a wristwatch comprises a watch case 20, a winding crown 7 with a telescopic control rod, the telescopic control rod being mounted for axial displacement and in rotation in a tubular element 19 integral with the casing 20, the stem of telescopic control carrying at its inner end a control reference 21. The assembly further comprises a watch movement 1 with several functions controlled by the winding crown 7 in discrete axial positions of the telescopic control rod in which the return of control 21 at the end of the control rod engages in rotation with a controlled return 10, 11 in correspondence, which controlled return 10, 11 is associated with a function of the movement 1.
In this example, the winding crown 7 is in a neutral position corresponding to its rest position, the winding crown 7 being arranged to occupy two other positions each corresponding to a function of the movement 1. The winding crown 7 is thus arranged to define the axial positions of the telescopic control rod according to the actuation of the winding crown 7 between resting and actuating positions. The axis of the telescopic control rod, defining the plane B, is inclined at an angle of about 10 ° with respect to the axes of rotation 8, 9 of the controlled returns 10,11 of the movement 1. The ordered returns 10,11 of the movement 1 are offset axially relative to each other with their peripheries radially offset in correspondence with the inclination of the axis of the control rod to allow the control gear 21 of the telescopic control rod to pass an engagement with a controlled return 10, 11 to an engagement with another controlled return 10, 11 during the axial displacement of the telescopic control rod from one discrete axial position to another.
In this example, the winding crown 7 of the wristwatch is extended by the telescopic control rod passing through the watch case 20. The winding crown 2 is connected to the watch movement 1 that it is likely to rotational drive, for example for setting the time, and during a manual extraction action on the winding crown 7. The winding crown 7 is embedded in a housing 12 of the watch case 20 and

is accessible only by manual pressure, such as a push button, for the passage from a retracted position to an extraction position, or vice versa. The telescopic control rod has three discrete axial positions: - a depressed rest position where the control gear 21 does not engage with a controlled return movement; an intermediate position where the control gear 21 engages with a first controlled reversal 10 of the movement; and - a pulled position where the control gear 21 engages with a second controlled return 11 of the movement. The axes of rotation 8, 9 of the first and second controlled return 10,11 are arranged perpendicular to the plane of a plate of the movement 1 and are spaced laterally from each other with the axis 8 of the first controlled deflection 10 closer to the axis of the control rod than the axis 9 of the second controlled return 11 while the diameter of the first controlled return 10 is smaller than the diameter of the second controlled return 11.

In the example shown, the two control references 10, 11 are offset with respect to each other and their teeth follow the sequence of right teeth 13, conical teeth 14 for the first control gear 10 and conical teeth 15, right teeth 16 for the second control gear 11. The outer diameter of the right gear 13, 16 the first and the second controlled gear 10, 11 is smaller than the outer diameter of its bevel gear 14,15. The control rod of the winding crown 2 is mounted telescopically in a tube 19 mounted telescopically in the housing 12 in. In a variation not illustrated, it is possible to combine an inclined winding crown and an inclined oscillating weight as well as the other accessory mechanisms.
