Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To acquire a metallic dial even if using a luminous member. SOLUTION: This dial 4 for a timepiece comprises a dial body 10 and time characters 11 provided at equal spaces on the surface. The time characters 11 are structured to comprise the luminous member 12 provided on the surface of the dial body 10, and a metal film 13 with light transmitting property provided on the whole surface of the luminous member 12. Accordingly, even if the metal film 13 is provided on the whole surface of the luminous member 12, since the metal film has the light transmitting property, the luminous member 12 absorbs external light through the metal film 13 in a bright place to store it as light energy, and in a dark place, light can be emitted through the metal film 13 with the light energy stored by the luminous member 12. Moreover, since the metal film 13 is provided on the whole surface of the luminous member 12, the metallic dial can be acquired owing to the metal film 13 even if using the luminous member.

In a dark place, light is stored by the light energy stored in the light storing member 12 so that the light is stored on the side surfaces of the light storing member 12 where the metal film 17 is not provided and the metal film 1 on the upper surface of the light storing member 12.
7 can be diverged. For this reason, since the entire time character 16 emits light in a dark place, it is possible to know the time even in a dark place, and in particular, since more light diverges from each side than the upper side of the time character 16, the time character 16 The surroundings can be brightened, which can also enhance the decorative effect. The hour character 16 is formed on a part of the entire surface of the light storage member 12, that is, over the entire upper surface of the light storage member 12.
7 is provided, when the timepiece dial 15 is viewed from above by the metal film 17, the hour character 16 looks like a metal tone, so that even if the phosphorescent member 12 is used, a metallic tone can be obtained. it can.

According to such a timepiece dial 20, since the metal film 22 having a light-shielding property is provided only on the upper surface of the light storage member 12 of the entire surface of the light storage member 12 of the time character 21, it is bright. In the place, the external light can be absorbed by the light storing member 12 and stored as light energy from each side surface of the light storing member 12 where the metal film 22 is not provided. In a dark place, the light is stored by the light energy stored by the light storing member 12. The light can be diverged from each side surface of the light storage member 12 where the metal film 17 is not provided. For this reason, since the periphery of the hour character 21 emits light in a dark place, it is possible to know the time even in a dark place, and particularly, the periphery of the hour character 21 becomes bright, so that the hour character 21 appears to be raised and further decorated. It is possible to obtain high quality. In addition, since the metal film 22 is provided on a part of the entire surface of the light storage member 12, that is, on the entire upper surface of the light storage member 12, the time character 21 can be viewed from above by using the metal film 22. When this occurs, the hourly character 21 looks like a metal tone, so that even when the light storage member 12 is used, a metal tone can be obtained.
