Electronic device with secondary display projection

An electronic device for conveying first information by the use of at least one display hand, and having a secondary display for displaying secondary information, wherein the electronic device comprises:

• an actuation mechanism, operatively coupled to the at least one display hand, for rotation thereof at least in one of a clockwise and counterclockwise direction;
• and
• a dial, positioned intermediate the at least one display hand and the actuation mechanism, wherein the dial comprises a plurality of display segments each of which is made up of a multilayered assembly comprising:
• a transparent substrate having a first and a second surface;
• a transparent electrically conductive layer formed on the second surface of the transparent substrate;
• an electroluminescent layer formed on the transparent conductive layer;
• an insulating layer formed on the electroluminescent layer;
• and
• an electrically conductive layer formed on the insulating layer;
• means for selectively illuminating electroluminescent layers of each of the plurality of display segments;
• wherein light emanating from the illuminated electroluminescent layers during an illuminated condition passes through the transparent substrate;
• whereby secondary information is provided by the selected illumination of the electroluminescent layers.
