<p>The present invention relates to a case (2) for a timepiece (1), i.e. a wristwatch, comprising a middle (3), a back (4), and a first and second member (9, 8, 44, 49) for attaching to a watchstrap. The back (4) is attached to the middle (3) so as to be pivotable between open and closed positions, and to define a bearing surface in the open position for using the timepiece as a table clock. The first attachment member (9) is arranged so as to enable a chain to be attached for using the timepiece as a pocket watch, and the second attachment member (8, 44, 49) includes at least one recess (44) provided in the middle (3), at the circumference thereof and near the back (4), such that one end (6) of the watchstrap can be inserted therein when the back is in the open position, and locked by the back when the latter is closed. The invention further relates to the corresponding timepiece (1), as well as to a set including such a timepiece combined with a suitable watchstrap and chain. Advantageously, any configuration of the timepiece can be changed into another configuration without having to use tools.</p> |
