Abstract
An analog timepiece has an hour and a minute hand which may show either the time in a normal manner or information other than the time. When the timepiece is in its normal time display mode, a display function may be activated to display information other than the time by means of external command means. When this function is activated, the hands are superimposed and selectively occupy together the same angular position representative of the information apart from an indication of the time.
