An equality checking circuit adapted to compare the output of the hour and minute circuit with the output of the alarm setting circuit to produce a coincidence signal. An alarm device is operated by the coincidence signal, gate means, and a manual switch. The gate means is so arranged to produce a signal for setting an alarm time in the alarm setting circuit in accordance with the closing of the switch.
