Abstract
A balance-spring stud for fixing with a spot of glue a free end of a last turn on the outside of a spiral spring for a timepiece movement, this balance-spring stud includes a base within a plane, first and second arms extending from the plane and free at their end opposite the base, the first and second arms being separated from one another by a gap in which the free end of the last turn on the outside of the spiral spring that is trapped in the hardened spot of hardened glue is housed, at least one of the first and second arms being provided with a stop device arranged to prevent the spot of hardened glue in which the free end of the last turn on the outside of the spiral spring is trapped from being released from the gap in which the spot of hardened glue is housed when this spot of hardened glue no longer adheres to the balance-spring stud.
