Generalizing a theorem of Bès and Choffrut

Bès and Choffrut recently showed that there are no intermediate structures between $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ and $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\mathbb{Z})$. We prove a generalization: if $\mathcal{R}$ is an o-minimal expansion of $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ by bounded subsets of Euclidean space then there are no intermediate structures between $\mathcal{R}$ and $(\mathcal{R},\mathbb{Z})$. It follows there are no intermediate structures between $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\sin|_{[0,2π]})$ and $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\sin)$.
