A wristwatch is equipped with a timepiece exterior assembly, a valve member, a coil spring, and seal members. A pipe provided in the exterior assembly so as to establish communication between the interior and exterior thereof has seal surfaces and escape portions. The valve member is equipped with a valve member shaft portion inserted into the pipe and exhibiting a detachment preventing portion to be caught by a pipe edge portion from the outside of the exterior assembly, and a valve member head portion arranged inside the exterior assembly. The spring, which urges the valve member toward the inner side of the exterior assembly, is provided between the valve member head portion and the timepiece exterior assembly. Seal members mounted to the valve member shaft portion in correspondence with the seal surfaces are moved between a sealing position and an exhaust position through axial reciprocating movement of the valve member, and, while in contact with the seal surfaces, define a closed space S together with the outer periphery of the valve member shaft portion and an escape portion opposed to this outer periphery. |
