Electronic Timepiece and Movement
20170003654 · 2017-01-05 ·

An electronic timepiece has a display device that displays display information, a drive mechanism that drives the display device, a crown that can perform a rotary operation, and a control device that corrects the display information displayed on the display device by the rotary operation of the crown. The control device has a single correction mode and a continuous correction mode which are selected by the rotary operation of the crown. In the single correction mode, a single correction signal is output to the drive mechanism so that the display device is corrected as much as a single correction quantity. In the continuous correction mode, a continuous correction signal is output to the drive mechanism so that the display device is corrected as much as a continuous correction quantity. The continuous correction quantity is set depending on types of the display information to be corrected in the continuous correction mode.

Watch

An object of the invention is to prevent a positional deviation of a hand while reducing power consumption. A watch includes: a plurality of hands; a plurality of motors configured to drive or brake the plurality of hands, respectively; a pulse generation unit configured to supply, to the plurality of motors, a drive pulse for driving the hands and a lock pulse for braking the hands; and a control unit configured to control an operation mode including a normal hand movement mode and a tactile read mode, and the pulse generation unit supplies the lock pulse to the motors when the control unit shifts the operation mode to the tactile read mode.
