ABSTRACT:
A timepiece in the form of a miniature digital clock includes a front side with a window portion to receive a transparent window for viewing time display means disposed inside the clock housing and an actuator-receiving portion adjacent the window portion to receive slide switches, push switches or other switch means to control the functions of the clock. A multifunctional member is pivotably mounted on the housing and includes an open portion and adjacent cover portion. The multifunctional member is pivotable to a first position where the cover portion overlies the actuator means to prevent accidental actuation of the clock actuator means during travel and the open portion overlies the window portion of the clock to permit viewing of the time display means when the actuator means is covered. The member is also pivotable to a second position behind the clock housing such that the member functions as an adjustable stand means for supporting the timepiece on a table or the like.
