An electronic timepiece includes: a 6 o'clock information display unit that displays one display mode among a plurality of display modes including a barometric display mode in which a barometric pressure is displayed, using a first display hand; a 10 o'clock information display unit that displays a change in the barometric pressure using a second hand in a case in which the display mode displayed by the 6 o'clock information display unit is the barometric display mode; a 2 o'clock information display unit that displays the barometric pressure using measurement display hands in the case in which the display mode displayed by the 6 o'clock information display unit is the barometric display mode; and a time display unit that displays a time using an hour hand and a minute hand irrespective of the display mode.

A component for the internal parts or the movement for a timepiece or a piece of jewellery including a substrate partially coated with a black layer and decorated with at least one stone, the black layer including carbon nanotubes or aluminium oxide, the substrate being at least devoid of the black layer on the portion facing the stone. It also relates to the method for manufacturing this component for the timepiece or the piece of jewellery.

An electronic timepiece enables displaying multiple times and easily correcting the displayed time. An electronic device has a correction mode setting unit that sets a first time correction mode for adjusting a first time, or a second time correction mode for adjusting a second time, in response to a correction mode setting operation; and a display control unit that moves an indicator hand to a first indicated position indicating that the hands to be corrected are first hands when the first time correction mode is set, and moves the indicator hand to the second indicated position indicating that the hands to be corrected are second hands when the second time correction mode is set.

An electronic timepiece includes: a barometric pressure sensor; a letter plate that has a “MEAS” letter indicating “measurement progress”; and a second display hand that displays that measurement of a barometric pressure is being executed by pointing a region in which the “MEAS” letter is disposed in a case in which the barometric pressure sensor performs measurement of the barometric pressure.

An electronic timepiece includes a letter plate that has an ALT region, a BAR region, and a COM region and a first display hand that displays indication of an altitude display mode by pointing the ALT region, displays indication of a barometric display mode by pointing the BAR region, and displays indication of an azimuth display mode by pointing the COM region. In the letter plate, the ALT region, the BAR region, and the COM region are arranged in a line in this sequence. In a rotation direction of the first display hand, a distance between the ALT region and the BAR region and a distance between the BAR region and the COM region are shorter than a distance between the COM region and the ALT region.

Timepiece display mechanism including a cam driven by a time base, and a pivoting lever including an elastically returned feeler member following the contour of the cam and a first rack meshing with a first angular orientation wheel which drives an indicator plate synchronously or via a differential mechanism, the indicator plate projecting radially with respect to a main axis and being parallel to or coplanar with the first wheel, the display mechanism includes a connecting rod articulated at a first end to a carriage slidably mounted on the indicator plate and carrying a retractable hand, a second end of the connecting rod being pivoted on a fixed pivot or on a movable pivot comprised in an elongation wheel set driven directly or indirectly by the lever.

An electronic timepiece has a plurality of modes and includes a plurality of indicating hands including a first indicating hand as a mode hand that indicates each mode, an operation section that allows mode switching operation that instructs switching among the modes, and a display control section that moves the plurality of indicating hands to be moved on the basis of the mode switching operation in such a way that periods for which the plurality of indicating hands move in high-speed advance action do not overlap with one another. The display control section first moves the first indicating hand among the plurality of indicating hands.
