            KRASS, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                               

                                           DECISION ON APPEAL                                                 

                   This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of claims 1-10, all of the           
            pending claims.                                                                                   
                   The invention is directed to a single phase electromechanical transducer especially        
            useful in a horological instrument such as a watch.  In particular, the stator of the transducer  
            has a planar structure and the rotor has one permanent, bipolar magnet.                           
            The planar structure of the stator is such that the structure defines two stator magnetic
