A combination of a camera and wristwatch, and a new application of a wristwatch that comprises a display device. The camera has recording means for electronically recording an image of an object, and transmission means for transmitting the recorded image on a radio wave. The wristwatch has display means that can display the current time and image, reproduction means for receiving the radio wave from the camera located at a nearby position, and reproducing the image, and display control means for controlling the display means to display the reproduced image. The image sensed by the camera is transmitted to the wristwatch located at a nearby position by radio, and can be displayed on the display means of the wristwatch.
