An electronic timepiece includes: a radio-wave receiving unit; a time acquiring unit that acquires time information and daylight-saving-time implementation information; a storage unit that stores predetermined information associated with a time in a preset area; and a calculation unit that calculates a current time in the preset area, wherein the predetermined information includes daylight-saving-time setting information; and when the time of switching to/from daylight saving time comes during a radio-wave reception process, the calculation unit determines whether a first or second condition is satisfied, wherein the first condition is that radio-wave reception has failed; and the second condition is that the daylight-saving-time implementation information is information provided before the time of switching; and when the first or second condition is satisfied, the calculation unit switches the time to calculate current time.
