Position detecting apparatus and timepiece hand position detecting apparatus using the same

摘要

To provide a position detecting apparatus capable of promoting detection certainty of a position of a movable body, a hand position detecting apparatus of a timepiece capable of promoting detection certainty of a position of a hand and an electronic timepiece having the hand position detecting apparatus. Hand position detecting apparatus of an electronic timepiece include movable bodies constituted by integrally molding conductive portions including conductive carbon nanotube and nonconductive portions including nonconductive carbon nanotube, and probes for detecting that either ones of the conductive portions and the nonconductive portions of the movable bodies are present at detected regions.
