  • the choice of the function of the clock movement 1 to be actuated is made by moving the correction member 100 from one stable activation position to the other. For this, the user slides the correction member 100 by exerting a translation force on the correction member 100, via the pusher 130, according to the arrows referenced A1 shown in figures 5a and 5b .
  • the sliding of the corrective member 100 can be rectilinear or curvilinear.
  • the correction member 100 can be moved rectilinearly in a direction perpendicular to the axis XX as shown in figure 2 , 5a and 5b .
  • the translation force to be exerted is substantially tangent to the outer face 23 of the middle part 20, at the level of the slot 21.
  • provision may be made to move the correction member 100 along an arc of a circle whose center is common to the center of the box 2.
  • the shape of the slot 21 is adapted to allow such curvilinear sliding.
  • the user When the correction member 100 is in position, the user actuates the correction member 100 by exerting pressure on the pusher 130 in a direction indicated by the arrow referenced A2 on the figures 5a and 5b , parallel to the XX axis.
  • the pressure exerted goes against the return element 140, moving the pusher 130 and the control rod 120 towards the inside of the box 2 and until they come into contact with the function corrector 10, 12 selected. Additional pressure on push-piece 130 makes it possible to actuate function corrector 10, 12 and to activate, select, reset or correct the function of said clockwork movement 1 associated with function corrector 10, 12.
  • control rod 120 actuates two function correctors, of the rocker type, of a mechanical clock movement.
  • control stem can interact with a function corrector of the electrical contact type making it possible to display, correct, select, engage, or reset at least one function derived from the time current of any mechanism.
  • the invention also relates to a case 2 comprising a clock movement 1 comprising at least two function correctors 10, 12 for displaying, correcting, selecting, switching on or resetting functions derived from the current time, such as for example a date, a time zone, a chronograph, etc., and at least one multifunction function corrector 100 according to the invention making it possible to select a function corrector 10, 12 of the movement 1 and to actuate the latter upon pressing pusher 130.
  • a clock movement 1 comprising at least two function correctors 10, 12 for displaying, correcting, selecting, switching on or resetting functions derived from the current time, such as for example a date, a time zone, a chronograph, etc.
  • the invention also relates to a timepiece, such as a wristwatch, comprising a case 2 containing a timepiece movement 1 comprising at least two function correcting members 10, 12 for displaying, correcting, selecting, engaging , or reset functions derived from the current time, such as a date, a time zone, a chronograph, etc.
  • a timepiece such as a wristwatch
  • a case 2 containing a timepiece movement 1 comprising at least two function correcting members 10, 12 for displaying, correcting, selecting, engaging , or reset functions derived from the current time, such as a date, a time zone, a chronograph, etc.
