ABSTRACT:
An electronic digital display timepiece having a locking switch to prevent inadvertent correction of the timepiece, the locking switch being adapted to effect setting of at least one of the digits of time displayed. The electronic timepiece includes a quartz crystal oscillator circuit for producing high frequency time standard signals and a divider circuit including a plurality of divider stages adapted to produce low frequency timekeeping signals in response to said high frequency time standard signals. A display is associated with each of the plurality of divider stages in order to display digits of time in response to the low frequency timekeeping signals counted thereby. The count of certain of the divider stages may be corrected by correction switches provided a locking switch is first displaced from a locking mode to release mode. The locking switch is coupled to at least one divider stage not having a correction switch coupled thereto through circuitry effecting a setting of the divider stage by the operation of said locking switch.
