Electronic device and electromagnetic wave timepiece

Abstract

An electronic device includes a timer which measures a current time, a display which displays information based on the time, a receiver which, by receiving and decoding a signal, including time information indicating a standard time, which is encoded by means of a predetermined communication system, acquires the time information, and a controller which, as well as instructing the receiver to acquire the time information, corrects a deviation of the measured time, based on the time information, and instructs the display to display information based on the corrected time. The controller gives an instruction in such a way that no time period occurs in which both the receiver's operation of acquiring the time information, and the display's operation of displaying the information based on the corrected time, are executed.
