An electronic device has a housing having a first transparent surface and a second transparent surface opposite to the first transparent surface. A timepiece movement is disposed in the housing and has a display for displaying time through the first transparent surface of the housing. A thermoelectric generator is disposed in the housing for generating electric power in response to a temperature difference across the thermoelectric generator. At least one solar generator is disposed on the second transparent surface of the housing for receiving light transmitted through the second transparent surface to generate electric power. An electrical power storage device stores electric power generated by at least one of the thermoelectric generator and the solar generator and supplies the electric power to the timepiece movement.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. An electronic device comprising: display means having a display face for displaying time; a transparent cover disposed opposite to the display face of the display means; and electronic timepiece circuit for driving the display means to display time; a thermoelectric generator for generating electric power; a pair of solar generation disposed on opposite sides of the thermoelectric generator and disposed opposite to the display face of the display means for receiving light transmitted through the transparent cover to generate electric power; switching means for outputting at least one of the electric power generated by the thermoelectric generator and the electric power generated by the solar generators; and electric power storage means for storing the electric power outputted from the switching means and for supplying the electric power to the electronic timepice circuit.
