摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a display device which is bright with a low power and is capable of producing an aesthetic effect.

This display device allows, by switching of a power source 8, a colored decorative design 11 printed onto a non Lambertian optimized diffuse reflector 12 placed against a back face of the optical shutter 5, to be uncovered or masked. A timepiece has a dial formed wholly or partly by such a device.
