Abstract
A watchcase essentially comprises a crystal 1 engaged in a recess 2 of a bezel or body 3. A material 6 capable of assuming a liquid or pasty consistency at the time of assembly, then solidifying and adhering to the wall 4 of the recess 2 is inserted in the space formed by the walls 4 and 5 of part 3 and crystal 1. The crystal 1 has a configuration such that the material 6, after setting, will exert a geometrical locking effect upon it.
