摘要

The element has a case (1) containing a mechanical clock movement comprising a repetitive striking mechanism that includes a release rocker (8) provided with a pawl (13) mounted to pivot on the rocker and engaged with teeth of a ratchet trigger. The mechanism has a striking mode selection mechanism that includes an operation element accessible from the outside of the clock element. The operation element is formed of a cursor (C) mounted to slide in a back and forth movement on a periphery of the case of the clock element between positions corresponding to striking and silent modes.
