Abstract

An electronic timepiece gives upon demand, an audible tactile or optical indication of current "strokes" corresponding to the strokes of a mechanical clock, e.g. each hour stroke may comprise dual tones. Time information is also given by strokes when setting the timekeeping counters 20 to give the correct time, and when pre-setting a desired alarm time into alarm counters 30. Outputs from counters 20 are fed to a decoding circuit 23 which supplies stroke signals to a signal generator 25 connected to a signalling device 27. The signalling device may also be used to give the alarm in response to an output from coincidence detector 37. The timepiece may additionally incorporate a conventional analogue or digital time display. <IMAGE>
