A unified digital time display is presented in an expanded display field and configured for compatibility with prior balanced, quadribalanced, enhanced quadribalanced or unidirectional segmented displays by positioning hour display elements generally in the center of the field, minute display elements in a space beside the right flank of the hour elements, seconds display elements below the hour elements, with markers in a space beside the left flank of the hour elements which are visually diffe...

Quadribalanced digital time displays and methods comprising increasing digital minutes displayed on the right flank of centrally positioned digital present hours, in relatively upper and lower positions during the first and second quarter hours, followed by decreasing digital minutes displayed on the left flank of digital next hours, in relatively lower and upper positions during the third and fourth quarter hours, are enhanced by simultaneously displaying markers in one or more of the three qua...

An electronic timepiece including a hollow casing, an electronic L.E.D. module disposed in the casing, the module including a digital time and date display. A glass crystal is connected into an open bezel of the casing and covers the module and the display. By selective manual finger contact with the casing, the display is preferably orientable for reading alternately from either side of the timepiece by the wearer or by an observer. An illuminated image projection separate from the display pref...

A clock including a screen having graduations therealong representing time periods, and light bands representing hours, minutes and seconds hands traveling along the screen to indicate current time. When at least two of the three hands overlap one another, light flashes are displayed.

A device for indicating elapsed time by way of the state of indicators is disclosed, such indicators being arranged in at least four groups such that the first two groups taken together indicate elapsed hours and the second two groups taken together indicate elapsed minutes. The indicators are switchable between a first and second state, such as illuminated or not illuminated. The number of indicators in a first state, such as illuminated, indicate the value of a digit.

Balanced, quadribalanced, enhanced quadribalanced or unidirectional segmented digital time display systems are modified by inclusion of enhanced prompts which readily distinguish such real time displays and which comprise the letters AL, dA, and each of M, D and Y in pairs, to symbolize that the displays are in modes for setting or resetting an alarm time or calendar values such as the current day name and the current month, day or year dates.

An electronic timepiece has a computer for controlling operation of the electronic timepiece. The computer stores in a storage medium data inputted by a user using functions of the electronic timepiece. A display time of the data is switched by the computer in accordance with an amount of the data stored in the storage medium. The computer then displays the data on a screen of the electronic timepiece by successively switching display of the data in accordance with the switched display time.

A multi functional analog digital watch including an analog display area, a digital display area, and a band. The multi functional analog digital watch also includes four push buttons which are intended for actuation by the user of the watch for controlling different functions including a light, changing modes in the digital display area between the time, the date, a timer, a stopwatch, and life saving instructions related to basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. The timer countdowns a preset per...

A clock display having two linear parts. The first part has 6 positions for indicating the hours 1-6. Hour indications on the second part progress toward the position for hour 1 on the first part.

An electronic timepiece has a display driver circuit for driving a display panel having plural display portions for displaying information corresponding to plural functions executed by the timepiece. The display driver circuit turns off one or more display portions corresponding to active functions when a timekeeping function requiring continuous visual recognition is being executed by the timepiece so that a display corresponding to the function requiring continuous visual recognition may be vi...
