Abstract
An electronic timepiece includes a pointing hand, a distance display hand, a magnetic sensor, a GPS receiver receiving GPS time information from a GPS satellite, a storage unit storing ephemeris data of the GPS satellite, and a control unit generating positional information of the electronic timepiece using the GPS time information received by the GPS receiver and the ephemeris data stored in the storage unit and executing navigation using the pointing hand and the distance display hand based on the positional information, an output of the magnetic sensor, and destination site information. When the ephemeris data is stored in the storage unit and then a first predetermined time equal to or less than a valid period of the ephemeris data elapses, the control unit receives the ephemeris data using the GPS receiver and updates the ephemeris data stored in the storage unit to ephemeris data received using the GPS receiver.
