Abstract

Balance wheel and hairspring mechanism, clock, and method for manufacturing the balance wheel and hairspring mechanism. High precision can be maintained. The balance wheel and hairspring mechanism includes: a balance shaft (410) rotatably supported on a base plate; an inner stud (440) fixed to the balance shaft (410); a hairspring (70) fixed to the inner stud (440), having a Grossman curve disposed on the side of the inner stud (440) and an Archimedes curve connected to the Grossman curve; and a shock-resistant component (500) that at least suppresses displacement of the shape on the side of the inner stud (440) in the Grossman curve.
