Abstract
A battery accommodation section is made attachable to and detachable from a lower portion of a timepiece main body thereby electrically connecting between the timepiece main body and the battery accommodation section through a connector section. A timepiece main body side terminal is connected to a timepiece module, while the battery accommodation section side terminal is connected to a primary battery. In the state that the battery accommodation section is provided with the timepiece main body, the primary battery and the timepiece module are brought into electrical connection through the connector section whereby electric power can be supplied from the primary battery to the timepiece module. In this manner, if the timepiece main body is mounted on the upper portion of the battery accommodation section, appearance is good and fixing on the arm is easy.
