Abstract

In an analog electronic watch having a calendar display the power required during change of the calendar display, about 6 hours out of 24, is greater than at other times. In order to effect economy in power consumption, the pulse for driving the watch motor during the time other than the period in which the calendar display is being changed is only sufficient to drive the time indicating means. In case the motor fails to step when such pulse is applied, this is detected by a detecting circuit and a corrective drive pulse is applied to the motor so as to drive it.
