1. A timepiece comprising:
a solar panel comprising:
power generation areas including power generators; and
a connection area which connects the power generation areas, which generates a smaller amount of power than the power generation areas generate, and which is a linear narrow area narrower than the power generation areas; and
a hand rotated above the solar panel,
wherein, in a sleep mode, the hand stops at a position where the hand does not overlap the power generation areas.
