Abstract
A limiting device including an oscillator and capable of blocking this oscillator carried by the carriage of a tourbillon or karussel, which carriage includes a carriage wheel driven by an energy source of the watch or of a movement with a gear train, and carries an escapement mechanism engaging with the oscillator and including an escape pinion, this device includes a control rod, engaging with a control member external to this tourbillon or karussel, in order to push, substantially radially relative to the carriage axis, a resilient strip arranged so as to bear tangentially against the carriage wheel in order to stop the carriage upon passage of the control member from a rest position to an active position, and so as to remain remote from the carriage wheel when the control member is in the rest position thereof.
