Combination portable electronic timepiece and television

摘要

A portable electronic timepiece includes an electronic time-keeping device for developing electric time signals suitable for use as a time standard. The timepiece is equipped with a television receiver for receiving telecast TV signals and develops therefrom electric video signals representative of the video information contained in the telecast signals. Both the time signals and the video signals are applied through drive circuitry to a matrix indicator comprised of a plurality of longitudinal electrodes and a plurality of row electrodes. A switching circuit selectively applies the time or video signals to the matrix indicator for effecting display of either a time image or a video image.
