An electronic device that includes a display assembly comprising a display, a texture layer, a transmissive and reflective layer, and a cover layer. The display includes an upper surface on which visual data is displayed and from which light is emitted. The texture layer includes a lower surface having a first texture with structural components and a second texture with structural components that are different from structural components of the first texture. The transmissive and reflective layer is positioned between the display and the texture layer and includes a first texture with structural components that are complementary to the structural components of the first texture of the texture layer and a second texture with structural components that are complementary to the structural components of the second texture of the texture layer. The cover layer is positioned above the texture layer and forms an upper surface of the display assembly.

In an electronic timepiece, a dial ring is disposed in an outer peripheral portion of a dial inside an exterior case. Opening portions are disposed in the dial ring. An inner rotation ring is rotatably disposed inside the dial ring. A plurality of additional displays for displaying display content other than time are disposed in the inner rotation ring. One of the plurality of additional displays is visible through the opening portions by rotating the inner rotation ring. The electronic timepiece includes a control unit that controls a rotation amount of the inner rotation ring and an indicating hand that indicates the additional display.

A computerized watch is described that includes a cover that forms an outer surface of the computerized watch, a screen configured to output graphical information for display, a set of physical watch hands positioned between the cover and the screen and configured to present a time of day. One or more computer processors and a memory comprising instructions. The instructions, when executed, cause the one or more computer processors to responsive to determining that the computerized watch is operating in a time display mode, manipulate the set of physical watch hands such that the set of physical watch hands present the time of day by obscuring a portion of a display region of the screen, and responsive to determining that the computerized watch is not operating in the time display mode, manipulate the set of physical watch hands such that the set of physical hands do not obscure the screen.

According to various embodiments, a watch may be provided. The watch may include: a timing circuit configured to provide information about a current time; a smart watch circuit configured to provide smart watch functionality; a first battery configured to provide energy to the timing circuit; a second battery configured to provide energy to the smart watch circuit; and a communication circuit configured to provide communication between the timing circuit and the smart watch circuit; wherein the communication circuit includes a safety circuit configured to prevent leakage of current from the first battery to the second battery.

A wristwearable device for displaying travel information using at least one travel information indicator, the wristwearable device including a receiver for receiving data indicative of the travel information from a transmitting device; at least a first actuation mechanism, operatively coupled to the at least one travel information indicator, for rotating the at least one travel information indicator in at least one of a clockwise and counterclockwise direction; a controller, operably coupled to the receiver and the actuation mechanism, for causing the at least first actuation mechanism to rotate the at least one travel information indicator in at least one of the clockwise and counterclockwise direction based on the data received by the receiver; and wherein the position of the at least one travel information indicator conveys information regarding a travel.

A watch may include a first display unit, a second display unit, a first polarizer set, and a second polarizer set. The second display unit may be positioned over the first display unit and may transmit light. One of the first display unit and the second display unit may display a time information image that indicates time. The other of the first display unit and the second display unit may display non-time information image, e.g., a user interface element. The first polarizer set may be positioned between the first display unit and the second display unit. The second polarizer set may be positioned on the second display unit. One of the first polarizer set and the second polarizer set may rotate relative to the other for enabling the watch to conceal or show the time information image.
