[0010] (First embodiment) A first embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a wristwatch will be described below with reference to Figs. As shown in Fig. 1, this wristwatch W1 has a case 1. On the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock sides of this case 1, there are provided band attachment parts 3 to which a watch band 2 is attached.

[0011] As shown in Fig. 1, switch devices 4 to 6 are provided on the 2 o'clock, 3 o'clock, and 4 o'clock sides of the case 1. Of these switch devices 4 to 6, for example, switch device 4 on the 2 o'clock side is a switch that starts measuring time when the operation mode of the wristwatch W1 is tachymeter mode. Switch device 5 on the 3 o'clock side is a crown for correcting the time, etc. Switch device 6 on the 4 o'clock side is a switch for switching the operation mode of the wristwatch W1. In addition to tachymeter mode, the operation modes of the wristwatch W1 may include stopwatch mode, world time mode, timer mode, etc.

[0012] On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 2, the case 1 comprises a first case 7 and a second case 8 which is a display member. The first case 7 is made of highly rigid synthetic resin or metal. The second case 8 is a bezel which is attached to the top of the first case 7 via a first waterproof packing 9. This second case 8 may be made of synthetic resin, but is preferably made of a metal such as a titanium alloy.

[0013] 2, a watch crystal 10 is attached to the upper opening of case 1, i.e., the upper opening of second case 8, via a glass packing 11. A back cover 12 is attached to the lower part of case 1, i.e., the lower part of first case 7, via a second waterproof packing 13. Additionally, a watch module 14 is provided inside case 1 via an inner frame 14a.

[0014] In this case, as shown in Fig. 2, a dial 15 is provided on the top of the watch module 14, and a ring-shaped parting member 16 is disposed between the upper surface of the outer periphery of this dial 15 and the lower surface of the outer periphery of the watch crystal 10. That is, this parting member 16 has its outer periphery disposed on the inner periphery of the second case 8, with its lower surface disposed on the upper surface of the outer periphery of the dial 15. The cross-sectional shape of this parting member 16 is formed into a substantially triangular shape, and the inner periphery is formed into an inclined surface 16a.

[0015] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the clock module 14 is equipped with various components necessary for the clock function, such as a clock movement (not shown) that moves hands 17 such as second hand 17a, minute hand 17b, and hour hand 17c above the dial 15, a display unit 18 that displays information such as the date and day of the week, and a circuit unit (not shown) that drives and controls the clock movement and display unit 18.

[0016] In this case, the display unit 18 is provided in the region between the center of the dial 15 and the 3 o'clock side, as shown in Fig. 1. Also, hour characters 20 from 1 o'clock to 12 o'clock are provided at equal intervals on the outer periphery of the dial 15, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. A portion of the outer periphery end of each of the multiple hour characters 20 is disposed on the inclined surface 16a of the parting member 16.

[0017] Meanwhile, the upper surface of the second case 8, which is the display member of the case 1, is provided with an outer peripheral side surface 24, which is a first surface, and an inner peripheral side surface 25, which is a second surface, which have different inclination angles, as shown in Figures 1 and 2. A first notation 26 and a second notation 27 of a tachymeter are respectively displayed on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25. This tachymeter measures the average speed of a moving object, such as a car, based on the angle of rotation of the needle during the time it takes for the moving object to travel a specified distance, for example, 1 km.

[0018] As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 are each formed in a circular ring shape, and the outer peripheral side surface 24 is arranged concentrically around the inner peripheral side surface 25. The outer peripheral side surface 24 is inclined at a viewable angle with respect to the viewing direction. That is, the outer peripheral side surface 24 is formed as an inclined surface whose height gradually decreases from the inner circumference to the outer circumference. In contrast, the inner peripheral side surface 25 is formed as a plane perpendicular to the viewing direction.

[0019] As a result, in the second case 8 of the case 1 of this wristwatch W1, the first surface, the outer peripheral side surface 24, is an inclined surface, and the second surface, the inner peripheral side surface 25, is a horizontal plane, so that both the first notation 26 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the second notation 27 on the inner peripheral side surface 25 can be seen when the wristwatch W1 is viewed from the front of the case 1, which also improves the visibility of the first notation 26 and the second notation 27.

[0020] 1, a first tachymeter notation 26 is displayed on the outer peripheral side surface 24, which is the first surface. Also, a second tachymeter notation 27 is displayed on the inner peripheral side surface 25, which is the second surface. In this case, each of the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 is displayed with the numbers used in the tachymeter mode engraved on it.

[0021] That is, both the first notation 16 and the second notation 27 are notations indicating values ​​determined based on a predetermined criterion, and the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 include a plurality of values ​​different from each other, and these values ​​are arranged in descending order clockwise on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25. As a result, the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 are configured to display a plurality of values ​​determined based on a predetermined criterion in a complementary manner to each other, so that the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 can correctly display a plurality of values ​​determined based on a predetermined criterion.

[0022] That is, as shown in Fig. 1, the first notation 26 displays numbers representing time in a predetermined scale unit. Also, the second notation 27 displays numbers representing time that are intermediate numbers between the numbers of the first notation 26, and corresponds to each intermediate number between the numbers of the first notation 26. In this case, the first notation 26 displays numbers larger than the second notation 27. Also, the first notation 26 displays numbers thicker than the second notation 27.

[0023] Also, different surface treatments are applied to the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25. For example, the outer peripheral side surface 24 may be subjected to a radial hairline treatment, and the inner peripheral side surface 25 may be subjected to a circumferential hairline treatment perpendicular to the radial direction. Also, for example, the outer peripheral side surface 24 may be subjected to a hairline treatment, and the inner peripheral side surface 25 may be subjected to a mirror finish or a matte finish. In other words, it is sufficient that the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 are subjected to different surface treatments by combining the various surface treatments described above.

[0024] In other words, a ridge line is formed and interposed between the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 on the surface of the second case 8. This ridge line is visually recognized as a boundary line between the first notation 26 and the second notation 27, and this makes it easy to distinguish the first notation 26 displayed on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the second notation 27 displayed on the inner peripheral side surface 25 from each other and easy to see, thereby improving visibility.

[0025] Next, the operation of the wristwatch W1 will be described. When using this wristwatch W1, first, the case 1 is attached to the wrist by the watch band 2. In this state, the hands 17, including the second hand 17a, minute hand 17b, and hour hand 17c, usually move above the dial 15 to point to the hour characters 20 on the dial 15 and the scale of the border member 16, thereby indicating and displaying the current time.

[0026] In this state, for example, to measure the average speed of a moving object such as a car using a tachometer, first operate switch device 6 the required number of times to select tachometer mode. Then, second hand 17a stops facing the initial 12 o'clock position. After that, by operating switch device 4 once, second hand 17a starts moving at a predetermined rotation speed (for example, one revolution per minute) from the 12 o'clock position.

[0027] Then, when the vehicle such as a car has traveled a predetermined distance, for example 1 km, the second hand 17a stops when the switch device 4 is operated again. Then, the movement of the second hand 17a stops and points to the first notation 26 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the second notation 27 on the inner peripheral side surface 25, which are displayed on the top surface of the second case 8, which is the display member.

[0028] As a result, the average speed of a moving object, such as a car, when it travels a specified distance (e.g., 1 km) is calculated based on the numbers or scales displayed on the first marking 26 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the second marking 27 on the inner peripheral side surface 25 and indicated by the second hand 17a.

[0029] In this case, the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 are each formed in a circular shape on the upper surface of the second case 8, which is the display member, and the outer peripheral side surface 24 is arranged concentrically around the inner peripheral side surface 25. As a result, the first notation 26 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the second notation 27 on the inner peripheral side surface 25 are displayed in double, that is, in two rows. Therefore, the numbers displaying the time on the first notation 26 and the numbers displaying the time on the second notation 27 are displayed large and easy to see.

[0030] In addition, the outer peripheral side surface 24 is inclined with respect to the viewing direction. That is, the outer peripheral side surface 24 is formed as an inclined surface whose height gradually decreases from the inner circumference to the outer circumference, and the inner peripheral side surface 25 is formed as a horizontal plane. As a result, the boundary between the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 is easily visible due to the difference in physical angle between them, so that even if the first notation 26 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the second notation 27 on the inner peripheral side surface 25 are arranged close to each other, the risk of misreading the numerical values ​​due to the notation being seen as one unit can be reduced, and the visibility of each of the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 is improved.

[0031] Furthermore, the first marking 26 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 displays numbers in a predetermined scale unit, and the second marking 27 on the inner peripheral side surface 25 displays numbers that are intermediate between the multiple numbers of the first marking 26, and are displayed corresponding to the intermediate positions between the numbers of the first marking 26. Therefore, even if the position indicated by the second hand 17a is between the numbers of either the first marking 26 or the second marking 27, a more accurate number (average speed of the running object) can be known from the numbers of the other marking, so that the average speed of the running object can be more accurately indicated than when only one of the marks is displayed.

[0032] In addition, the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 are concentric circles, and the outer peripheral side surface 24 is disposed outside the inner peripheral side surface 25, so that the circumference is longer. Since the outer peripheral side surface 24 has a longer circumference than the inner peripheral side surface 25, the character width in the circumferential direction of the numbers in the first inscription 26 can be made wider than that of the numbers in the second inscription 27. By making the character width of the first inscription 25 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 wider within the limited space, the visibility of the first inscription 26 can be improved.

[0033] Conversely, the numbers in the second markings 27 can have a narrower character width in the circumferential direction than the numbers in the first markings 26. By making the character width of the second markings 26 on the inner peripheral side surface 25 narrower in a limited space, more of the second markings 27 can be displayed while maintaining an appropriate distance between the second markings 27, thereby improving visibility.

[0034] In addition, since different surface treatments are applied to the outer peripheral side surface 24 on which the first notation 26 is displayed and the inner peripheral side surface 25 on which the second notation 25 is displayed, the difference in surface treatment between the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 makes it easier to see the boundary line between them. Therefore, even if the first notation 26 on the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the second notation 27 on the inner peripheral side surface 25 are arranged close to each other, the notations will be seen as one, reducing the risk of misreading the numerical values, and ultimately improving the visibility of each of the first notation 26 and the second notation 27.

[0035] In addition, in the second case 8 of the case 1 of this wristwatch W1, the outer peripheral side surface 24, which is the first surface, and the inner peripheral side surface 25, which is the second surface, are each circular, and the outer peripheral side surface 24 is arranged concentrically around the outside of the inner peripheral side surface 25, so that the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 can be displayed double, that is, in two rows. This allows each number to be displayed larger than when the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 are all displayed in a single row, improving visibility.

[0036] Conversely, since it is not possible to display all the numbers in the first notation 26 and the second notation 27 in one column while maintaining the size of the numbers, if priority is given to the size of the numbers in order to maintain visibility, it would be necessary to display only some of the numbers in the first notation 26 and the second notation 27, which could reduce convenience.

[0037] In addition, since different surface treatments are applied to the outer peripheral side surface 24 on which the first inscription 26 is displayed and the inner peripheral side surface 25 on which the second inscription 25 is displayed, the decorativeness of the case 1 is enhanced, thereby improving the appearance and design of the entire wristwatch.

[0038] For example, the outer peripheral side surface 24 is subjected to a radial hairline treatment, and the inner peripheral side surface 25 is subjected to a circumferential hairline treatment perpendicular to the radial direction, thereby enhancing the decorativeness and design of the case 1. Similarly, for example, the outer peripheral side surface 24 is subjected to a hairline treatment, and the inner peripheral side surface 25 is subjected to a mirror finish or matte finish, thereby enhancing the decorativeness and design of the case 1. In other words, the decorativeness and design of the case 1 are enhanced by subjecting the outer peripheral side surface 24 and the inner peripheral side surface 25 to a combination of the various surface treatments described above.

[0039] In the above-mentioned first embodiment, the inner peripheral side surface 25, which is the second surface provided on the upper surface of the second case 8, which is the display member, is formed on a horizontal plane, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the inner peripheral side surface may be formed on an inclined surface. In this case, the inner peripheral side surface, which is the second surface, may be an inclined surface whose height gradually increases from the inner periphery to the outer periphery, or may be an inclined surface whose height gradually decreases from the inner periphery to the outer periphery at an inclination angle that is gentler than the inclination angle of the outer peripheral side surface 24 of the first surface.

[0040] In the above-described first embodiment, the first notation 26 displayed on the outer side surface 24 and the second notation 27 displayed on the inner side surface 25 are numbers indicating speed in a tachymeter. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the first notation on the outer side surface 24 and the second notation on the inner side surface 25 may be the names of cities around the world in a world time system.

[0041] Second embodiment Next, a second embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a wristwatch will be described with reference to Figures 3 and 4. In this case, the same parts as those in the first embodiment shown in Figures 1 and 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals. 3 and 4, the display member of a wristwatch W2 of this second embodiment is a parting member 30 provided on the outer periphery of the dial 15 of the case 1. Other than this, the structure is substantially the same as that of the first embodiment.

[0042] 3 and 4, the parting member 30 may be made of synthetic resin, but is preferably made of metal such as titanium alloy. The parting member 30 has an outer peripheral side surface 31 as a first surface and an inner peripheral side surface 32 as a second surface, each of which has a different inclination angle. In this case, the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32 are each formed in a circular ring shape, and the outer peripheral side surface 31 is arranged concentrically around the outer side of the inner peripheral side surface 32.

[0043] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32 are inclined at a visible angle with respect to the viewing direction. That is, the outer peripheral side surface 31 is formed as a first inclined surface that is inclined at a gentle angle so that the height gradually decreases from the outer periphery toward the inner periphery. The inner peripheral side surface 32 is formed as a second inclined surface that is inclined at a steeper angle than the first inclined surface so that the height suddenly decreases from the outer periphery toward the inner periphery. This makes it easier to see the boundary between the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32 due to the difference in physical angle between them.

[0044] 3 and 4, a first notation 33 and a second notation 34 are displayed on the outer peripheral side surface 31, which is the first surface, and the inner peripheral side surface 32, which is the second surface. In this case, the first notation 33 and the second notation 34 indicate the time. That is, the second notation 34 on the inner peripheral side surface 32 is a part of each of the outer peripheral ends of the multiple hour characters 20 that indicate 1 o'clock to 12 o'clock.

[0045] As a result, even if the first notation 33 on the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the second notation 34 on the inner peripheral side surface 32 are positioned close to each other, the boundary line between them can be easily seen due to the difference in physical angle between the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32, thereby reducing the risk of misidentification due to the first notation 33 and the second notation 34 being seen as one unit, and ultimately improving the visibility of each of the first notation 33 and the second notation 34.

[0046] As shown in Fig. 3, the first marking 33 is a scale displayed corresponding to each space between the multiple hour characters 20 from 1 o'clock to 12 o'clock in the second marking 34 on the inner peripheral side surface 32. As a result, the size of the hour characters 20 in the second marking 34 is displayed larger than the size of the scale of the first marking 33. Also, in this second marking 34, the thickness of the hour characters 20 is displayed thicker than the thickness of the scale of the first marking 33.

[0047] Therefore, even if the position indicated by the hands 17 of the second hand 17a, minute hand 17b, and hour hand 17c is between the hour marks 20 of the first marking 33, the more accurate time can be known by the scale of the second marking 34, so that the current time can be indicated more accurately than when only one of the marks is available.

[0048] Similarly to the first embodiment, the outer peripheral side surface 31, which is the first surface, and the inner peripheral side surface 32, which is the second surface, are each subjected to different surface treatments. For example, the outer peripheral side surface 31 may be subjected to a radial hairline treatment, and the inner peripheral side surface 32 may be subjected to a circumferential hairline treatment perpendicular to the radial direction. Also, for example, the outer peripheral side surface 31 may be subjected to a hairline treatment, and the inner peripheral side surface 32 may be subjected to a mirror finish or a matte finish. That is, it is sufficient that the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32 are subjected to different surface treatments by combining the various surface treatments described above.

[0049] The parting member 30, which is the display member of the wristwatch W2 of the second embodiment, has an outer peripheral side surface 31 which is a first surface and an inner peripheral side surface 32 which is a second surface with different inclination angles, with the first notation 33 being displayed on the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the second notation 34 being displayed on the inner peripheral side surface 32. As a result, as in the first embodiment, the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32 are inclined at different inclination angles, so that the first notation 33 displayed on the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the second notation 34 displayed on the inner peripheral side surface 32 are easily distinguished from each other and can be clearly seen, thereby improving visibility.

[0050] In this case, in the parting member 30 of this wristwatch W2, the first surface, the outer peripheral side surface 31, and the second surface, the inner peripheral side surface 32, are each circular, and the outer peripheral side surface 31 is arranged concentrically outside the inner peripheral side surface 32, so that, as in the first embodiment, the first notation 33 and the second notation 34 can be displayed double, that is, in two rows, and this allows the first notation 33 and the second notation 34 to be displayed larger than when they are displayed in a single row.

[0051] In addition, in the parting member 30 of this wristwatch W2, the first surface, the outer peripheral side surface 31, and the second surface, the inner peripheral side surface 32, are each inclined at a different inclination angle with respect to the viewing direction, making it easy to distinguish the first notation 33 and the second notation 34 displayed on the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32 from each other and easy to see each, thereby improving visibility.

[0052] In other words, in the parting member 30 of this wristwatch W2, the outer peripheral side surface 31 of the first face is formed as a first inclined surface that is gently sloping, and the inner peripheral side surface 32 of the second face is formed as a second inclined surface that is more steeply sloping than the outer peripheral side surface 31, making it possible to easily distinguish and see the second notation 34 on the inner peripheral side surface 32 and the first notation 33 on the outer peripheral side surface 31, which also improves the visibility of each of the first notation 33 and the second notation 34.

[0053] Furthermore, in the parting member 30 of this wristwatch W2, the second notation 34 displayed on the inner side surface 32, which is the second surface, is displayed larger and bolder than the first notation 33 displayed on the outer side surface 31, which is the first surface, so that the second notation 34, which is part of the outer end of the hour characters 20 displayed on the inner side surface 32, and the first notation 33, which is the scale displayed on the outer side surface 31, can be easily distinguished and seen, which also improves the visibility of each of the first notation 33 and the second notation 34.

[0054] Therefore, the user can quickly determine the approximate time by looking at the hour digits 20 of the second marking 34 indicated by the hand 17, and then determine the exact time by looking at the scale of the first marking 33, thereby improving visibility.

[0055] Furthermore, in the parting member 30 of this wristwatch W2, different surface treatments are applied to the first surface, the outer peripheral side surface 31, and the second surface, the inner peripheral side surface 32, thereby enhancing the decorativeness of the parting member 30, as in the first embodiment, and thereby improving the overall appearance and design of the wristwatch W2.

[0056] In this case, the outer peripheral side surface 31 may be given a radial hairline treatment and the inner peripheral side surface 32 may be given a circumferential hairline treatment perpendicular to the radial direction, or the outer peripheral side surface 31 may be given a hairline treatment and the inner peripheral side surface 32 may be given a mirror finish or matte finish. In other words, by combining the above-mentioned various surface treatments on the outer peripheral side surface 31 and the inner peripheral side surface 32, the decorativeness and design of the entire wristwatch W2 can be further enhanced.

[0057] In the above-mentioned second embodiment, the outer peripheral side surface 31, which is the first surface, and the inner peripheral side surface 32, which is the second surface, of the parting member 30, which is the display member, are formed as a first inclined surface and a second inclined surface that are inclined at different inclination angles, respectively. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the outer peripheral side surface 31, which is the first surface, may be formed as a horizontal plane.

[0058] In addition, in the above-mentioned first and second embodiments, the case where the present invention is applied to wristwatches W1 and W2 has been described, but the present invention does not necessarily have to be a wristwatch, and can be applied to various types of clocks, such as travel watches, alarm clocks, table clocks, wall clocks, etc. In addition, the present invention does not necessarily have to be a clock, and can be applied to electronic devices such as wrist-worn devices and personal digital assistants that are worn on the arm.
