Abstract
A horological resonator mechanism includes a structure and an anchoring unit from which at least one inertial element arranged to oscillate along a first degree of freedom in rotation about a pivoting axis extending along a first direction is suspended. The inertial element is subjected to return forces that make the inertial element oscillate. The mechanism includes a stopper to stop the inertial element that can be actuated on demand to prevent the oscillations of the inertial element. The stopper moves the inertial element between a pivoting position and a stopping position in which the inertial element cannot oscillate.
