A fluid dispenser device comprising a reservoir containing at least two doses of fluid, a dispensing member comprising a piston that is mounted to slide in said reservoir so as to dispense fluid, a dispensing head that is provided with a dispensing orifice and a side skirt, a finger-rest element being provided on said dispensing head, said device comprising an actuating member which is axially movable inside said side skirt in order to carry out successive actuations of the device by displacing said reservoir relative to said dispensing head so as to thus displace said piston in said reservoir and thus dispense fluid through said dispensing orifice, a return spring being provided to return said actuating member to its a starting position after each actuation, said device comprising an indicator comprising a viewing window and indicator means, wherein said viewing window is disposed in said side skirt under said finger-rest element, said return spring co-operating with a radial shoulder of a central sleeve fixed in said dispensing head, said radial shoulder being disposed axially below said viewing window, such that said return spring is never visible in said viewing window;
- and wherein said central sleeve includes an at least partially transparent wall and/or one or more cutouts, to enable said indicator means to be seen through said viewing window.
A fluid dispenser device comprising a reservoir containing at least two doses of fluid, a dispensing member comprising a piston that is mounted to slide in said reservoir so as to dispense fluid, a dispensing head that is provided with a dispensing orifice and a side skirt, a finger-rest element being provided on said dispensing head, said device comprising an actuating member which is axially movable inside said side skirt in order to carry out successive actuations of the device by displacing said reservoir relative to said dispensing head so as to thus displace said piston in said reservoir and thus dispense fluid through said dispensing orifice, a return spring being provided to return said actuating member to a starting position after each actuation, said device comprising an indicator comprising a viewing window and a visible indication, wherein said viewing window is disposed in said side skirt under said finger-rest element, said return spring co-operating with a radial shoulder of a central sleeve fixed in said dispensing head, said radial shoulder being disposed axially below said viewing window, such that said return spring is never visible in said viewing window;
- and wherein said central sleeve includes an at least partially transparent wall and/or one or more cutouts, to enable said visible indication to be seen through said viewing window.
