Chronograph timepiece

摘要

A chronograph timepiece makes it possible to make sure that it normally operates at the time of an initial starting operation such as system resetting without having to perform a difficult operation or the like. When a system reset signal is input to a system reset terminal and it is detected that initial starting has been effected, a processing unit enables a time hand and a chronograph hand to move after permitting the time hand to perform a predetermined demonstration hand movement when both a start/stop switch and a reset switch have not been simultaneously operated; when these switches have been simultaneously operated, the processing unit enables the time hand and the chronograph hand to move without permitting demonstration hand movement.
