Acoustic timepiece display mechanism with a chronograph repeater for the acoustic display, by a striking mechanism, of a duration measured by a chronograph mechanism, this striking mechanism including a winding lever for driving a rack to move a striking rack in order to read the magnitude concerned and to release a corresponding strike function, this acoustic display mechanism includes, between the mechanism controlling the chronograph mechanism and the winding lever, a mechanical connection arranged, depending on the position of a control cam of the chronograph mechanism indirectly defining a variable secondary direction of the winding lever, to isolate or not to isolate the winding lever from a winding pusher operated in a single pusher direction by a user to set off the acoustic display of the timed duration.
