Abstract

The present invention relates to an electronic timepiece allowing the display of at least one first time related data item (H1) conventionally based on the Hour-Minute-Second system, and at least one second time related data item (H2) based on a decimal system in which the time is divided at least into thousandths of a day. For this purpose the timepiece according to the present invention includes generating means (14) which, from auxiliary control pulses (IL) originating from the time base (2), allow second control pulses (I2) to be supplied allowing said second time related data item (H2) to be formed and displayed.
