An electronic timepiece includes a storage that stores specific-region DST application rule information and local time information that includes, in association with each other, DST application rules for each region and standard-wave transmitting station information indicating each station transmitting standard waves receivable in the region; a processor that controls clock time to be kept by a clock circuit and displays time to be displayed on a display; and a standard wave receiver that receives standard waves and obtains time information. The processor calibrates the clock time based on the time information indicated by the standard waves received by the standard wave receiver, and controls the display time based on whether the specific-region DST application rule information and the DST application rule information associated with the standard-wave transmitting station information indicating a station transmitting the received standard waves satisfy a predetermined condition.

An electronic timepiece includes: a measurement result obtaining section configured to obtain a measurement result of a display target item which is any measurement item among a plurality of measurement items; a display configured to display the measurement result of the display target item; and a display controller configured to cause the display to display the measurement result of the display target item during a display period that corresponds to the display target item, in which the display period is set in accordance with each of the plurality of measurement items.

An electronic device and time piece are shown. The electronic device includes: a plurality of antenna devices; a plurality of motors; and antimagnetic plates, each fully or partially covering the motors and having cutouts at positions overlapping with the antenna devices.

An electronic timepiece includes a counter, a near field communication unit, a standard electric wave receiving unit and a control unit. The counter is configured to count current time. The near field communication unit is configured to communicate with a terminal by near field communication electric waves and to receive first time information. The standard electric wave receiving unit is configured to receive standard electric waves and to acquire second time information. The control unit changes current time counted by the counter, based on the first or second time information.

Whether a bright state or a dark state is established is determined each time a motor is driven one step, based on a presence or absence of a passing of light through a detection hole disposed in a detection wheel that rotates associated with rotations of a hand wheel coupled with the motor. A switching position X is identified at which the dark state is switched to the bright state when the dark state is determined and thereafter the bright state is determined. A position one step after the identified switching position X is set to be a reference position X+1 of the hand wheel. The reference positions X+1 and X1 can thereby be set after a driving mechanism is assembled.
