Multifunctional watch

Abstract

There is provided a multifunction timepiece wherein the visibility of pointers can be improved, and increases in the thickness of the timepiece can be reduced. This timepiece comprises a dial, an hour hand, a minute hand, a pointer, and a movement. The dial has a dial cover and a time display section on the inner periphery thereof. The hour hand is mounted on the time display section and has an hour hand rotating shaft disposed at a different position from the center position of the time display section. The minute hand is mounted on the time display section and has a minute hand rotating shaft disposed at a different position from the center position of the time display section. The pointer is mounted on the time display section and has a pointer rotating shaft. The dimension A from the pointer rotating shaft to the tip of the pointer is greater than the dimension B from the minute hand rotating shaft to the tip of the minute hand. The pointer rotating shaft is disposed at a position away from the hour hand rotating shaft by a distance less than dimension A and greater than dimension B. The movement drives the hour hand, the minute hand, and the pointer.

1 . A timepiece comprising: 
 a dial having a dial cover and a time display section on an inner peripheral side thereof;    an hour hand being mounted on the time display section and having an hour hand rotating shaft disposed at a position different from the center position of the time display section;    a minute hand being mounted on the time display section and having a minute hand rotating shaft disposed at a position different from the center position of the time display section and concentric with the hour hand rotating shaft, the hour hand rotating shaft and the minute hand rotating shaft being disposed at a position eccentric from the center position of the time display section in a 6:00 direction;    a pointer being mounted at a position eccentric from the center of the time display section and different from the hour hand rotating shaft and minute hand rotating shaft on the time display section and having a pointer rotating shaft, a dimension A from the pointer rotating shaft to a tip of the pointer being greater than a dimension B from the minute hand rotating shaft to a tip of the minute hand, the pointer rotating shaft being disposed at a position away from the hour hand rotating shaft by a distance less than the dimension A and greater than the dimension B, the pointer rotating shaft being disposed on the opposite side of the center position of the time display section from the hour hand and minute hand rotating shafts, and the pointer rotating shaft being disposed at a position eccentric from the center position of the time display section in a 12:00 direction; and    a movement being configured to drive the hour hand, the minute hand, and the pointer
