Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial field of application] This device is useful for traveling overseas.
The present invention relates to a timepiece with a time difference display function capable of easily displaying and recognizing the time difference from the time in the home country.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a device for displaying this kind of time difference, a digital device or an actual display device 61-542.
There is one in which a rotating portion for time adjustment as seen in Japanese Patent No. 88 is formed on the outer edge of the dial.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional example, the time display provided on the rotating portion for correcting the time difference simply indicates a number at a position that divides the rotating portion into 12 to 24 equal parts in the circumferential direction. It was displayed, and although it was easy to understand what time it was, some minutes were very difficult to understand.

In particular, since the watch is often busy, it is difficult to understand the time.

The timepiece with a time difference display function of the present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional example, and can easily display the time difference from the time in the home country, and moreover, it can accurately recognize a few minutes. It is something that can be done.

[0006]

That is, in the timepiece with a time difference display function of the present invention, the outer edge of the dial on the surface of the timepiece is a fixed part provided with a normal time display, and the inside of the time display of the fixed part is each a minute. It is characterized in that a plurality of rotating parts provided with a time difference time display including a display and a time display are sequentially rotatably attached, and an operating knob of the rotating part is attached to an appropriate place of a timepiece.

[0007]

As described above, the timepiece with the time difference display function of the present invention is capable of adjusting not only the hour display but also the minute display, and the time difference from the time in the home country can be displayed by a simple operation. .

Further, since the hour display and the minute display correspond to the hour hand composed of the short hand and the long hand, it is possible to accurately recognize not only the hour but also the minute.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the timepiece with a time difference display function of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the drawings, reference numeral 1 is a dial on the surface of a watch, and a ring-shaped fixing portion 2 having a time display 3 composed of numbers 1 to 12 is formed on the outer edge of the dial at regular 12-divided positions. There is. Reference numeral 4 is an hour hand composed of a short hand and a long hand, which can be rotated by a crown 5 on the side of the timepiece.

Inside the time display 3 of the fixed part 2, a first rotating part 7 having a minute display 6 and a second rotating part 9 having an hour display 8 are provided. The minute display 6 and the hour display 8 constitute a time difference time display. The plurality of rotating parts 7 and 9 are sequentially rotatably attached inside the time display 3 of the fixed part 2.

The rotating parts 7 and 9 are respectively provided with a first operating knob 11 and a second operating knob 12 on the side of the timepiece.
It is operated with and. Of course, these two knobs 11,1
Instead of 2, it is possible to configure with only one knob, and rotate the rotating parts 7 and 9 at the normal position and the pulling position of this knob, respectively.

When using the timepiece having the time difference display function, the first operating knob 11 and the second operating knob 12 are used.
Only by operating and, the rotating parts 7 and 9 are rotated to predetermined positions with respect to the ring-shaped fixed part 2 provided with the usual time display 3.

By rotating the rotating parts 7 and 9 in this way, the time difference between the rotating parts 7 and 9 and the time of the fixed part 2 in the home country can be adjusted by a simple operation.
Further, at that time, since the long hand and the short hand of the hour hand 4 point to the minute display 6 and the hour display 8, respectively, the time difference between the rotating parts 7 and 9 in the home country is displayed by a simple operation, and the local time is set to the time. Not only can you accurately recognize the minute.

The rotating portions 7 and 9 can be made easier to see by color-coding them into different colors.

[0016]

[Effect of the Invention] As described above, the timepiece with the time difference display function according to the present invention is capable of adjusting not only the hour display but also the minute display, and the time difference from the time in the home country can be displayed by a simple operation. You can

Further, since the hour display and the minute display correspond to the hour hand composed of the short hand and the long hand, it is possible to accurately recognize not only the hour but also the minute. Of course, the usual time display remains the same, and the time of two countries or places can be viewed simultaneously on one clock.
