Abstract:
Provided is an electronic timepiece that receives satellite signals more easily when satellite signal is received automatically. The electronic timepiece has a time display that displays time by the position indicated by a rotating first hand; a planar antenna that receives satellite signal transmitted wirelessly from a satellite; a receiver connected to the planar antenna; and a controller that operates the receiver when a specific condition is met. The planar antenna includes a dielectric substrate, and an antenna patch disposed to the substrate. The center of the patch antenna being disposed in the range between 6:00 and 11:00 on the time display.
