摘要： A timepiece with a display (10) for indicating the passage of one hour, whereby the minute symbols (14) are located along an open-ended path having a beginning (15) and an end (16) along which a current minute indicating means (13) effectively moves to indicate the current minute. A separate display means is used to show one or both of the current hour (11) and the next hour (12). The current minute indicating means (13) is adapted to reset rapidly and automatically to the beginning (15) of the path on reaching the end (16) of the path, at which time the hour display means (11,12) will then indicate the new current and/or next hour. The display facilitates the use of a single hand (13) in an analogue type display, which traverses an arcuate path over the course of an hour and then resets, preferably by a reciprocating action. Displays with a range of linear paths are also described.
