An analog electronic timepiece wherein oscillation of the oscillator circuit is stopped when the watch is placed into a reset mode.

In one embodiment of the invention the oscillator is stopped immediately upon placing the watch into a reset mode. In another embodiment of the invention, cessation of oscillation does not occur until a predetermined delay after reset.
