PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electronic timepiece which achieves simplified reception control processing and reduction in power consumption.SOLUTION: An electronic timepiece 1 includes: a receiving unit which captures a position information satellite, and receives a satellite signal transmitted from the position information satellite captured; a generation unit 41 which generates generation information on the basis of acquisition information acquired from the satellite signal; a display unit which displays the generation information; and a reception control unit 42 which controls the receiving unit. The reception control unit 42 includes: an acquisition information setting section 421 which sets an acquisition information type and a minimum number of satellites to be captured; and a satellite capturing control section 422 which controls the receiving unit, so as to perform processing for capturing a position information satellite. If the satellite capturing control section 422 captures a number of position information satellites that is equivalent to the minimum number of satellites to be captured and the captured position information satellites are of the acquisition information type set by the acquisition information setting section 421, it stops capturing more satellites. If the number of position information satellites being captured during reception becomes less than the minimum number of satellites to be captured, the satellite capturing control section 422 again performs operation for capturing a position information satellite. |
