Electronic circuit for individually correcting each digit of time displayed

In an electronic timepiece comprising a quartz crystal oscillator circuit for producing a high frequency time standard signal, divider means coupled to said oscillator means for producing a low frequency time standard carry signal in response to said high frequency time standard signal, at least two series-connected divider stages coupled in series with said divider means, each divider stage other than the last of said series connected divider stages producing a low frequency carry signal in response to the low frequency carry signal applied thereto, at least a portion of said divider stages each producing timekeeping signals and display means associated with each said divider stage producing said timekeeping signals for displaying time in response to said respective timekeeping signals applied thereto, the improvement comprising correction gate means coupled to each said divider stage producing a timekeeping signal, each said correction gate means being adapted to apply the carry signal from the next previous divider stage to the divider stage to which said correction gate means is coupled and being adapted to correct each divider stage by advancing the count thereof, and a control circuit means connected to each divider stage to be corrected to receive the carry signal produced thereby and the carry signal applied to said divider stage to be corrected, said control circuit means inhibiting the transmission to the next divider stage following said divider stage to be corrected of that portion of the corrected carry signal representative of a carry due to correction.
