A fine-adjustment device for watch-movement regulator-assemblies, comprising a control organ pivoting on a balance-cock and provided with an eccentric functioning together with a regulator-tail; wherein the control organ comprises a finger-piece extending towards the regulator axis within a cut-out which is laterally open on one of the sides of the regulator-tail, that the regulator tail is provided with a hub located on a fixed component fastened to the cock and compressed by an adjustable regulator ring surrounding the hub and located at the same level as the control organ, this ring being provided with an arm supporting regulator pin and key or balance-spring boot.
A one-piece regulator key for watch movements includes two spaced apart prongs projecting from and integral with a common support, each prong has an inward plane surface facing and substantially parallel to a like inward plane surface on the other prong and is provided at its free end with an inwardly projecting protuberance for decreasing the spacing between the prongs at their free ends.
In order particularly to put a watch into beat and adjust the isochronism, in addition to the poising screws (2a, 2b) of the balance (1) and the fine adjusting screw (7) pressing on the index tail 20a to alter the orientation of the index (20), the device includes, on the one hand, two screws (19, 29) respectively fixed in the balance cock (10) and in the index (20) to maneuver clamps by means of L-shaped rocking elements (13, 23) to fix the end of the balance spring and define its useful length, and on the other hand, a screw (9) for immobilizing the index (20) in a determined position, these three screws (9, 19, 29) enabling a fine adjustment to be carried out.
A precision regulating device for the regulator pointer of a timepiece includes a balance cock and an index regulator mounted on the balance cock such that the index regulator is pivotable about a regulator axis. A hairspring key arranged on the index regulator at a radial distance from the regulator axis allows changing the active length of a hairspring of the oscillating system of the timepiece in response to pivoting of the index regulator. The index regulator also includes a radially directed regulator pointer. A counterpressure spring including a resilient arm has one end region fastened on the balance cock and another free end region arranged so that it forces the regulator pointer, under prestressing, in the pivoting direction and holds it in abutment against a regulating screw arranged in a rotatable manner in a threaded bore of the balance cock or a component connected to the balance cock. The resilient arm has a holding-down region which can be positioned on an axial side of the regulator pointer relative to the regulator axis.
