A watch glass includes a first glass, a second glass and a decorative element. The second glass is connected to the first glass via a connecting intermediate layer. The decorative element is inserted in a setting, which is arranged in a watch glass recess. The watch glass recess is formed by a first recess in the first glass and a second recess in the second glass. Here, a space of the watch glass recess is defined by the first glass, the second glass and the setting. The space is filled with connecting material of the connecting intermediate layer, so that the setting is connected via the connecting material to the first class and the second glass.

Disclosed is a watch which includes: a rear cover; a dial fixedly connected with the rear cover, the dial and the rear cover defining a first cavity; a transparent touch screen located on a side of the dial facing away from the rear cover and fixedly connected with the dial, the transparent touch screen and the dial defining a second cavity; at least one pointer located in the second cavity and being rotatable relative to the dial; and a driving system located in the first cavity and configured to drive the at least one pointer to rotate and the transparent touch screen to operate. The watch has not only a classical appearance of a conventional watch but also smart functionality.

An embodiment of an electronic timepiece includes a cylindrical exterior case, a bezel and a windshield member. In the exterior case, a circuit board is housed. The bezel is formed of a metal material to be ring-shaped, includes an inward flange part that projects from an inner side surface toward a center of the ring-shaped bezel, is arranged on an outer upper side of the exterior case and is electrically connected with the circuit board. The windshield member is formed of a transparent dielectric substance, arranged in the bezel and supported by the inward flange part. The bezel is configured to resonate with a radio wave having a desired frequency by adjustment of at least one of (i) a relative permittivity of the dielectric substance and (ii) an area of an overlap region where the inward flange part and the windshield member overlap each other.
