ABSTRACT:
A time-correcting mechanism is actuated by a single external member which is rotated, pushed and pulled. Data representative of the rotational speed of the external member is stored in memory and the digital time display is subsequently adjusted in predetermined amounts and rates in accordance with the stored data. In an alternative mechanism, as few as one corrective pulse is applied to a one-minute counter for minor display adjustment when the external member is slowly rotated. More-rapid rotation of the external member causes a plurality of quickly fed pulses to be applied to a one-minute counter, and still more rapid rotation causes pulses to be applied to both the one- and ten-minute counters. Large adjustments in the display are rapidly accomplished.
