1. A sympathique watch (30) configured to cooperate with a sympathique clock (20), comprising:
a horological movement to which is connected at least one time value display (31, 32);
a coupling mechanism (38) for separating a display train (35) and a finishing train (36);
a reset mechanism configured to move the at least one time value display to a predetermined reference position; and
a first and a second actuator (310, 320) respectively configured to cooperate with a first and a second actuator (210, 220) of the clock (20), said first actuator (310) of the watch (30) being configured to occupy at least three successive distinct positions so as to act on the coupling mechanism (38) and on the reset mechanism, said second actuator (320) of the watch (30) being configured to occupy two end positions alternately in order to act on a time-setting mechanism, only when the first actuator (310) occupies one of its successive distinct positions.
