Abstract:
1. A chronograph mechanism including: (a) an elapsed time indicator member having heart-pieces connected thereto; (b) a reset control member; and (c) a reset device for said indicator member including a hammer having stop members, wherein the reset device is mounted in translation between an inactive position, wherein the hammer is disposed away from the heart-pieces, and an active position, wherein the hammer is disposed so that the stop members of said hammer exert a reset force against the heart-pieces, wherein the hammer includes first and second studs, wherein the first and second studs, respectively, are slidably mounted in first and second holes arranged in a part located above the chronograph mechanism, so that movement vectors of the first and second studs between the inactive and active positions are collinear, but not coincident, thereby moving the hammer.
