Abstract
Abstract An electronic device includes a printed circuit board for mounting electronic components thereon. An antenna, such as a dual loop antenna, is secured to the printed circuit board and acts as a bezel to mount a display, such as a liquid crystal display, onto the printed circuit board. A lens cap through which the display may be viewed is positioned over the display and is detachably coupled to the antenna for securing the display to the antenna/bezel.
