An electronic timepiece includes a timer that clocks a current time, a receiver that receives radio waves, a switch that receives an operation from a user, and a processor. The processor acquires, in accordance with the operation received by the switch, a determination result indicating whether the radio waves are receivable by the receiver, and selects and executes one of a first processing and at least one second processing that differs from the first processing. The first processing is processing to correct the current time clocked by the timer on the basis of the radio waves received by the receiver. The processor does not select the first processing when the determination results indicate that the radio waves are not receivable by the receiver.

A method for automatically correcting the time and/or the date for a self-correcting watch including at least one receiving member, at least one detecting member, and at least one processing unit for implementing the correction method. The correction method includes at least one step of receiving at least one datum, at least one step of detecting the wrong time and/or the wrong date and at least one step of correcting the time.

A watch case including a hollow pivoting bezel formed of first and second external elements including a near-field communication device provided with at least one microcircuit connected to an antenna, the case including a device for remotely controlling the communication device configured to activate or deactivate the communication device.

Disclosed is a clockwork with pointers or with a pointer module driven by a mechanical driving gear, wherein the clockwork is a hybrid clockwork that in addition to the mechanical driving gear, also at least includes an additional driving gear with a motor and an electric or electronic controller that is internal and which is equipped to be able to drive and/or adjust the pointers or the pointer module in parallel or in series with the mechanical driving gear.

A communication system (1) comprises a central (100) and a peripheral (200). The central (100) receives location information and time information from NTP servers (10) and a location server (30). The central (100) creates first offset information of the time measured by its own device and the time information received from the NTP servers (10). The central (100) acquires from map information a time difference corresponding to a location presented by the location information received from the location server (30). The central (100) creates first updated time information based on the time measured by its own device, first offset information, and time difference corresponding to the location presented by the location information received from location server (30) and transmits the first updated time information to the peripheral (200). The peripheral (200) changes the time displayed by its own device based on the received first updated time information.

In an example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a method may include receiving, at a device, timing information of a scheduled meeting, and determining time remaining for the scheduled meeting. The method further includes outputting, at the device, an indication of the time remaining at scheduled intervals.

A method for time synchronization in a vehicle may include transmitting, by a satellite navigation device to a controller and at least one LiDAR device, a UTC and a PPS signal. The satellite navigation device may have a first clock. The method may include synchronizing, by the controller, a second clock of the controller with the first clock of the satellite navigation device based on the PPS signal and the UTC. The method may include synchronizing, by the at least one LiDAR device, a third clock of the at least one LiDAR device with the first clock of the satellite navigation device based on the PPS signal and the UTC. The method may include synchronizing, by at least one camera, a fourth clock of the at least one camera with the second clock of the controller.
