Abstract
A device for correcting running of an electronic watch comprises two contactors acting on respective bistable circuits in turn acting on a combinatory circuit controlling a counter which provides binary correction information to an inhibitor circuit. The latter is arranged to inhibit a number of pulses of a pulse generator having a predetermined nominal frequency above a given value, to set the frequency at said given value prior to division to provide accurate clock pulses fed to a device for indicating the time. Successive actuation of respective contactors corresponds to increasing or decreasing the number of inhibited pulses from an approximate number stored in a programmable memory.
