ABSTRACT:
A digital display arrangement is provided for balanced general timekeeping having centrally-positioned hour digits and two sets of smaller, equal-sized minute digits flanking the hour digits for trailing and leading readout, with hockey stick-shaped display elements positioned below the minute digits and oriented to give graphic symbols of minutes increasing past the present hour and minutes decreasing toward the next hour, respectively. Means are provided for blanking the hour digits and simultaneously energizing a chronograph time display which, because of resulting large spaces uniquely seen only between the chronograph digits, presents substantial visual contrast from, and minimum potential for ambiguity or confusion with, the general timekeeping mode.
