ABSTRACT:
An electronic timepiece of the analog type including a timer is provided. A sound producing function is used for indicating the timer or alarm and this function is separated from the basic watch timekeeping circuitry. The sound producing function is easily incorporated into the timepiece without increasing the size of the timepiece. Setting of a timer function is accomplished by operation of an external member and the results of operating the external member are audibly indicated. In alternative embodiments, the second hand of the watch provides a visual indication of the time remaining in the selected time period, and a chronograph function may be provided.
