Diamond-polished applique for horology

A method for fabricating an applique for horology, comprising an upper surface intended to be seen by a user, and a lower surface for resting on a dial or a structure of a timepiece, and at least one foot protruding from said lower surface, comprising a series of steps wherein first a rough piece is made in the form of a straight workpiece with a flat lower surface from which projects a protuberance for forming each said foot, on the opposite side from a top of said rough piece, then a blank is made with at least a machining of each said foot, then said blank is mounted on at least one tool having at least one support surface complementary to the lower surface of said blank, said tool further including at least one recess for housing each said foot, said tool further including a gripping means and/or an adhesive for securing each said blank, and then the upper portion of said blank is machined with at least one final diamond-polishing operation to form said upper surface, wherein, once rough piece is made, said rough piece is deformed to form said blank so as to form an upper curve resulting from the deformation of said top, and wherein, on said tool, said upper curve is re-machined with at least one final diamond-polishing operation to form said upper surface.
