An electronic timepiece, including: a counter; a display section; a first processor; a second processor; and a power supply section which supplies electric power to each section from a battery, wherein when an output voltage from the power supply section decreases to less than a predetermined first reference voltage, the first processor stops a display operation by the display section, when the time information is acquired by the processing operation of the second processor, the first processor corrects the time counted by the counter based on the acquired time information and causes the display section to display the corrected time, and when the output voltage decreases to less than the first reference voltage following an acquisition operation of the time information by the second processor, the first processor does not stop a time display operation during a predetermined pending period.

A display arrangement for a watch case comprising a display module and a substantially transparent cover extending over the display module, wherein the cover comprises a layer forming a substantially opaque area outside the display module. The display arrangement further comprises one or more light emitting devices arranged below the opaque area, wherein the layer comprises a plurality of discontinuities that allows light to be transmitted through the opaque area from the one or more light emitting devices.

An electronic timepiece includes a timer unit, a timepiece-side communication unit, a timepiece-side daylight saving time information storage unit and a processor. The timer unit counts local time at a current position. The timepiece-side communication unit communicates with an external device. The timepiece-side daylight saving time information storage unit stores daylight saving time implementation information therein at least at the current position. The processor corrects the local time in correspondence to an implementation situation of daylight saving time at the current position, based on the daylight saving time implementation information, acquires update information of the daylight saving time implementation information from the external device through the timepiece-side communication unit and reflects the acquired update information in the daylight saving time implementation information.

An adjustable alarm indicator of an alarm application is described. The adjustable alarm indicator may be presented in connection with an alarm setting sequence. The adjustable alarm indicator may include a variable element having a variable annular shape, a first element associated with a first end of the variable element, and a second element associated with a second end of the variable element. The first element may be independently moveable to adjust the size of the variable element. The second element also may be independently moveable to adjust the size of the variable element.

A time display device, including: an indication display unit which displays a content according to an indicating operation, and a processor, wherein in a case where a remaining time with respect to a reference set time of an elapsed time from a measuring start timing is greater than a predetermined reference remaining time, the processor makes the indication display unit display a ratio of the remaining time with respect to the reference set time, and in a case where the remaining time is equal to or less than the predetermined reference remaining time, the processor makes the indication display unit display the remaining time.

A device for measuring the concentration of a gas constituting the ambient air includes a wristwatch comprising a watch case (13) containing a watch movement, members indicating the time (1, 3, 9) visible through a glass of the watch case (13). In addition, the wristwatch comprises at least one sensor (11) arranged to measure the concentration of a gas constituting the ambient air. The wristwatch also includes means for actuating an alert when reaching or exceeding a threshold of the gas concentration measured by the sensor (11). The device includes two operating states, a time state and an alarm state, wherein in the time state, the members indicating the time (1, 1, 3, 9) indicate the time and the sensor (11) permanently measures the gas concentration without displaying it or activating the alert. In case where the sensor (11) detects a concentration of a gas, the device switches to the alert state wherein the indicator member (4, 4, 8, 9, 10) displays this measured value and/or the means for actuating an alert actuate an alert normally without the time being displayed.

A smartwatch device and method. The abstract of the disclosure is submitted herewith as required by 37 C.F.R. 1.72(b). As stated in 37 C.F.R. 1.72(b): A brief abstract of the technical disclosure in the specification must commence on a separate sheet, preferably following the claims, under the heading Abstract of the Disclosure. The purpose of the abstract is to enable the Patent and Trademark Office and the public generally to determine quickly from a cursory inspection the nature and gist of the technical disclosure. The abstract shall not be used for interpreting the scope of the claims. Therefore, any statements made relating to the abstract are not intended to limit the claims in any manner and should not be interpreted as limiting the claims in any manner.

Display of the time remaining to the next scheduled alarm at the status bar on the display screen of the mobile device, may be helpful to the user to plan ahead for the event the alarm is set for. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a user equipment including a display, at least one processor and a memory coupled to the at least one processor. The processor determines one or more existing alarms in the mobile device, and a corresponding alarm set time for each existing alarm of the one or more existing alarms. The processor determines a time remaining to a next existing alarm of the one or more existing alarms. The processor configures a display screen status bar to show on the status bar, the determined time remaining to the next existing alarm.
