Abstract
A timepiece includes: a first plate-shaped member formed of a conductive material; a second plate-shaped member disposed on a first side of the first plate-shaped member and formed of a conductive material; a circuit board disposed between the first plate-shaped member and the second plate-shaped member; and a connecting member that electrically connects the first plate-shaped member to the second plate-shaped member. A through hole is formed in the circuit board, and the connecting member is inserted in the through hole to electrically connect the first plate-shaped member to the second plate-shaped member.

A timepiece comprising:
- a first plate-shaped member formed of a conductive material;
- a second plate-shaped member disposed on a first side of the first plate-shaped member and formed of a conductive material;
- a circuit board disposed between the first plate-shaped member and the second plate-shaped member;
- and
- a connecting member that electrically connects the first plate-shaped member to the second plate-shaped member, wherein
- a through hole is formed in the circuit board, and
- the connecting member is inserted in the through hole to electrically connect the first plate-shaped member to the second plate-shaped member.
A module comprising:
- a circuit retainer formed of a conductive material;
- a second plate-shaped member disposed on a first side of the circuit retainer and formed of a conductive material;
- a circuit board disposed between the circuit retainer and the second plate-shaped member;
- and
- a connecting member that electrically connects the circuit retainer to the second plate-shaped member, wherein
- a through hole is formed in the circuit board, and
- the connecting member is inserted in the through hole to electrically connect the circuit retainer to the second plate-shaped member.
A method for manufacturing a timepiece, comprising:
- disposing a second plate-shaped member formed of a conductive material;
- disposing a circuit board on an upper side of the second plate-shaped member in a gravitational direction, a through hole being formed in the circuit board;
- inserting a connecting member, in an upright state, into the through hole in the circuit board;
- disposing a first plate-shaped member on an upper side of the circuit board in the gravitational direction, the first plate-shaped member being formed of a conductive material;
- and
- electrically connecting the first plate-shaped member to the second plate-shaped member via the connecting member.
