Electronic watch and method of correcting time difference
An electronic watch includes a GPS receiver, a first time correction unit configured to correct time using the time information received by the GPS receiver, a beacon receiver configured to receive a beacon signal containing beacon identification information transmitted from a beacon installed indoors, a first storage unit configured to store beacon identification information and time difference information corresponding to the beacon identification information, a second time correction unit configured to correct a time difference using the beacon signal received by the beacon receiver and the time difference information stored in the first storage unit, and a button configured to accept a reception instruction of the beacon signal, which is operated by an operator. The beacon receiver is configured to receive a beacon signal when the button accepts the reception instruction.
Electronic timepiece
An electronic timepiece prevents the internal time from shifting because time information for correcting the internal time cannot be received. The electronic timepiece includes: a timekeeper; a receiver; an operating device; an automatic reception controller; a time adjuster; and a reception setter configured to selectively set a first automatic reception prohibition mode that prohibits operation of the automatic reception controller and is cancelled by a single operation of the operating device, and a second automatic reception prohibition mode that prohibits operation of the automatic reception controller and is cancelled by a specific operation of the operating device that is different from the operation that cancels the first automatic reception prohibition mode.
Electronic timepiece
An electronic timepiece suppresses loss of power generating performance of a solar panel, and suppresses drop loss of antenna performance. The electronic timepiece has a pivot; a dial that transmits a light through which the pivot passes; an antenna having a radiating electrode through which the pivot passes; and a solar panel through which the pivot passes and which is disposed between the dial and the radiating electrode. The solar panel has a power generating part that converts light to electrical energy, and is disposed, in a plan view through the thickness direction of the dial, superimposed with the radiating electrode. Part or all of the outside circumference of the radiating electrode is disposed outside the power generating part in plan view.

Electronic watch with a solar cell
A timepiece movement includes a photovoltaic cell which is attached to the upper surface of a support plate, preferably by adhesive bonding. On the other side of the cell, on its lower surface, the support plate is provided with a plurality of nuts. An electrical module including a flat surface is attached to the support plate with the nuts. The module is provided with several openings whose position and dimensions correspond to those of the nuts, so that the nuts pass through the openings, allowing the flat surface of the module to be placed in contact with the support plate. The module is secured to the support plate by screws, screwed into the nuts. The connection via the nuts secures the photovoltaic cell to the electrical module and ensures shock resistance, without requiring a lateral support.
