• the fastening elements carried by the branch and the fasteners of the wafer are preferably clipping means. Since the overall shape of the branch is triangular, it is advantageous to position these clipping means at the three corners of this triangular shape, two means at the hinge at the front of the branch and a means of attachment at the rear. , where the broad branch resumes a usual form.

• Figure HD The end position of positioning movement is shown in Figure HD which shows that the two tabs 726, 727 are locked in their housing and resist thrusts exerted in the direction B perpendicular to the face of the branch. Whether this thrust is exerted by the outer side, which is also the most common, or the inner side of the branch 702, it can have a thrust component in the direction A may not unlock the plate 702.
• This extremely simple movement allowing a very effective locking of the wafer facilitates the change of decoration or dressing of the bezel.
• the user of the bezel can thus have games of color pads or decors adaptable to different circumstances.
