Abstract
A mechanical timepiece includes: a hairspring; a permanent magnet; a soft magnetic core; a control circuit for performing rate adjustment based on a counter-electromotive voltage caused in a coil by a motion of the permanent magnet accompanying a forward direction motion and a reverse direction motion of the balance wheel. The permanent magnet is arranged so that, under a state in which the hairspring is brought to an equilibrium length, a direction of magnetization is directed to the first end portion side or the second end portion side.
