When 0 is driven, a plurality of display units rotate.

Then, the plurality of display units are stopped at an initial position (for example, the position shown in FIG. 24A) to detect the positions (S3). Thereafter, a signal is output from the determination circuit 34 to the motor drive circuit 36 again, and the motor is driven by a necessary amount so that the calendar format corresponding to the current month is displayed from the display window (S4).

Therefore, according to the third specific example, the calendar can be automatically corrected at the beginning of the month.

In this example, a columnar display unit is used, but a polygonal column display unit corresponding to the number of columns and rows of a matrix such as a hexagonal column may be used.

In this specific example, “star mark (☆)”
Is formed on the peripheral surface of the display unit, but this mark is not always necessary, and may be left blank without being provided.

In this specific example, the display of days "29", "30", and "31" is displayed in all seven calendar styles. A month with only days (not a leap year 2
Month), a month with only 29 days ("February of a leap year"),
Some months have only 30 days. This "29", "3
When it is not necessary to display the days “0” and “31”, the day display may be shielded by a shutter or the like (not shown) provided on the frame. That is, a slidable shutter provided on the frame body is provided, and in the first specific example, the shutter is moved by hand to block the display of unnecessary days. In the second specific example, a pulse motor for a shutter may be provided to automatically block the display of days that are not necessary.
