Abstract:
The spiral includes turns of rectangular section, whose pitch p and/or thickness e can vary from the inside curve towards the outside curve, or whose winding can deviate from the line of a perfect spiral. The inside curve can also be extended by a self-locking washer for fixing the spiral on the balance arbour with no play. The spiral is manufactured by photolithography and galvanic growth, or by micro-machining an amorphous or crystalline material, such as a silicon wafer.

Claim (Index 17):
A watch movement comprising:\n (a) a regulating balance mechanism, including\n (i) a balance; \n (ii) a spring; \n (iii) an arbour; \n (iv) a plate; and \n (v) a balance-cock, \n wherein the balance and the spring are mounted on the arbour, and wherein the arbour is pivotable between the plate and the balance-cock, wherein the spring comprises a single strip made up of a succession of turns, wherein an end of an inside curve of the strip is secured to the arbour and an end of an outside curve of the strip is secured to the balance-cock or to a part secured thereto, wherein a portion of the strip between the outside curve and the inside curve has a rectangular constant section with a constant height and a constant thickness, the spring is mounted on the arbour via a self-locking washer formed integrally with the spring.
