Electronic timepiece time zone display
First Claim
1. In a digital display for an electronic timepiece comprising in combination a plurality of numerical display digits for displaying time information and a plurality of visual indication display segments peripherally disposed about said numerical display digits for selectively indicating a predetermined time zone corresponding to the time displayed by said numerical display digits, the improvement comprising a bezel surrounding said plurality of visual indication display segments and having a plurality of first distinct indication means disposed therearound, each said first indication means being disposed proximate to the position of a visual indication display segment for identifying the predetermined time zone selectively indicated by the visual indication display segment, and a plurality of second indication means disposed on said bezel, each of said second indication means being positioned intermediate a specific visual indication display segment and a further first indication means representative of the time zone adjacent to the time zone represented by the specific visual indication display segment whereby the time zone indicated by the further first indication means corresponds to the time displayed by the numerical display digits when the time displayed is daylight savings time.

Abstract
A digital display for an electronic timepiece having visual indication display segments peripherally disposed around a numerical display digit to selectively indicate a predetermined time zone corresponding to the time displayed by the numerical display digits is provided. The display is characterized by a bezel surrounding the plurality of visual indication display segments, the bezel having a plurality of first distinct indicia disposed therearound. Each of the first indicia are disposed proximate to the position of a visual indication display segment to identify the predetermined time zone selectively indicated by the visual identification display segment. A plurality of second indicia are disposed on the bezel, each second indicia being positioned between a specific visual indication display segment and a further first indicia representative of the time zone adjacent to the time zone represented by the specific visual indication display segment.
