Abstract: A timepiece power source is provided, including a barrel containing a mainspring mounted between a drum and an arbor rotating integrally with a ratchet wheel, including a differential gear coaxial to the barrel, with a first input driven by the ratchet wheel, a second input which is the drum, and a pivoting output wheel, coaxial to the arbor, arranged to form or to drive a power reserve indicator, the differential gear including balls driving the output wheel, cooperating with an upper surface of the drum, and with a lower surface, which is opposite thereto, of a differential plate forming the first input, pivoting coaxially on the arbor and connected to the ratchet wheel by a friction means cooperating with a plate, and the ratchet wheel forms the cover of the barrel.

Abstract: Elementary timepiece mechanism comprising a first housing about an axis, a second housing, and a mobile element comprising a first shoulder pivoting in the first housing and a second shoulder pivoting in the second housing, the second housing comprising at least a first abutment surface arranged to ensure the alignment of the mobile element on said axis when the mobile element is in abutment on the first abutment surface, and the elementary mechanism includes at least one elastic return means arranged to return the mobile element to this first abutment surface.
