ABSTRACT:
An electronic watch with a chronograph function comprises a motor, a current time counter, a hand position counter, a coincidence detector and a backward/forward movement determining unit. When a chronograph mode is selected, a second hand moves backward or forward to a 12-o'clock (zero) position depending upon its position in a time measurement and indication mode. The electronic watch reliably resumes the time measurement and indication after it functions as a chronograph.
