Abstract
An electronic timepiece has an antenna having a first conductor element connected to a feed, a second conductor element superimposed with the first conductor element in plan view, and a shorting element shorting the first and second conductor elements; a solar panel; a circuit board electrically connected to the feed; a connector electrically connecting the solar panel and the circuit board; and a case having a side wall and housing the antenna, solar panel, circuit board, feed, and connector. A through-hole through which a pivot passes is disposed to the antenna at a position different from the shorting element. The connector is disposed in plan view to a third area excluding from a first area surrounded by the side wall a second area defined by a line indicating a position one-third the distance from the center of the first or second conductor element to an outside circumference.
