Abstract: A timer is configured with a lighting feature so as to provide illumination to the timer in dark environments. The light may actuate by the interaction of an actuating member and sensor within the timer housing. The light may turn on when the enclosure door is in an open position and the light may turn off when the enclosure door is in a closed position. The timer assembly includes a base having a sensor, a lid having an actuating surface or member, a time indicator positioned in the base, and a light interconnected with the base, wherein the actuating surface or member selectively operates the light.

Abstract: A watch assembly is provided with a watch housing, a watch movement, a watch display, as well as a special compartment holding a spare battery assembly and a standardized charging plug which enables the watch assembly to be connected to an auxiliary mobile device, such as a telephone, to be temporarily charged via the spare battery. Thus, a telephone can be a mobile device, such as a telephone, can be tethered to the watch assembly and utilize the mobile device while holding it in the palm of his or her hand.

Abstract: A timepiece having a mechanical clock movement and separate first and second cases (2, 3), the movement including first and second portions housed in the first and second cases (2, 3), respectively, the cases (2, 3) being mutually connected in a rotatably hinged manner via a hinge (4) defining a pivot axis so as to be capable of forming a variable angle between the cases, the part further including a controller arranged to transmit information from one portion of the movement to the other. The controller includes at least one rod (15) slidably mounted in the hinge along an axis substantially parallel to the pivot axis and engaging with the first and second portions of the clock movement for transmitting information from one portion of the movement to the other, by a linear, alternating movement, regardless of the relative position of the two cases (2, 3).

Abstract: A clock device for switching between standard and daylight saving time. The device features a housing with standard alarm clock features. A recess is disposed in the front of the housing. A digital display piece having a front face with a first digital display and a back face with a second digital display snaps into the recess in the housing. The digital display piece can rotate such that either the first or the second digital display faces forwardly. The first digital display is adapted to display standard time and the second digital display is adapted to display daylight saving time. A time change button is disposed on housing, the time change button can pivot between a standard time position and a daylight saving time position. The time change button rotates the digital display piece such that either the first digital display faces forwardly or the second digital display faces forwardly.

Abstract: A watch comprising: a watch bezel; a watch case in communication with the watch bezel, the watch case comprising several vents which are generally configured to allow air to flow through the vents.

Abstract: An accessory storage compartment that also functions as a clock comprising a front face, a back face, a first side, and a second side. The storage compartment can be opened to form a first half and a second have via a hinge. A button clasp secures the two halves together. Inside the storage compartment is an earring grid for holding earrings, a ring holding apparatus, and a plurality of hooks for holding necklaces, bracelets, and the like. Disposed on the front face of the compartment is a clock.

Abstract: A diver's watch having a frame (22) and a case (10) containing a clockwork movement associated with time displaying means (15, 16). The case includes a middle (11), a base (12) and a rotating bezel (13). The case is hinge mounted on the frame (22), which is configured so as to define a housing wherein the case can be folded down to take up a position preventing its bezel from rotating and wherefrom it can be retrieved to allow its rotation.

Abstract: To provide a wrist mounting type electronic apparatus facilitating attachment and detachment thereof. The wrist mounting type electronic apparatus is constituted by a main body bent substantially in an L-like shape and straps comprising a hard material. An inserting portion is provided at a front end of the strap on one side and is inserted into an inserted portion of the pivotable strap on other side. The inserted portion is penetrated with a bar member which is engaged with a small diameter hole of the inserting portion. Thereby, the wrist mounting type electronic apparatus can be mounted to the wrist. A hinge of the strap is provided with a coil spring and a state of opening the strap relative to a cabinet of the main body is maintained so far as the strap is not engaged.

Abstract: A wristwatch with a usable dial, fitted with keys, includes an electronic device to form a multifunctional wrist worn device. The structure of the wristwatch is such that there is enough space to regularly actuate each key with a finger. The part of the multifunctional device providing the time can be shifted to free up the device's body. In particular, this device is characterized by the fact that the device's body, freed up in this way by the shift of the watch, contains, on its periphery, a number of keys that make it possible to easily actuate the electronic device with a finger. This simple device makes it possible to cover and to mask the electronic device's keys when the latter are not being used, the device according to the invention then having the general appearance of a wristwatch.

Abstract: In an electronic apparatus case, the cover thereof mounted on one side of the case body through the intermediary of a hinge member so that the cover can be opened and closed by the same. Further, a substantially T-shaped lock member is rotatably mounted on the other side of the case body and, at the same time, an elongated lock hole is formed on the side of the cover corresponding to the lock member, so that the cover can be secured in position by allowing the head section of the lock member to pass through the lock hole of the cover and rotating the lock member by 90.degree..

Abstract: The watch case of this invention includes a caseband (2) made from sintered material and a back cover (10) secured to the caseband by means of at least two pins (12). Each pin passes through a first hole (14) provided in a first projection (16) formed in the caseband and two second holes (13, 15) provided respectively in two second projections (17, 18) formed in the back cover, said second projections being arranged respectively on either side of said first projection. Each pin being axially retained in its holes by the elastic effect provided by the seal when the caseband lies on the back cover.

Abstract: An electronic watch comprising a timepiece circuit consisting of a reference oscillation source, a frequency divider and a display driving circuit, a display device connected to an output of said timepiece circuit, a power supply driving said timepiece circuit, an external actuator operating said timepiece circuit from the exterior of the watch, an outer case consisting of a case and a band, and a flexible hinge making the case integral with the band whereby there may be provided a useful and functional watch which is small in size and thin, and have no shortcoming such as a tendency for disconnection and erroneous wiring.
