Provided is a timepiece part that reduces axial runout of a flat member when the rotating axle thereof turns. A escape wheel and pinion 18 includes an axle member having a first shaft 44 and a second shaft 45 that is larger in diameter than the first shaft, and a seat 48 disposed outside the position where the first shaft and the second shaft connect; a guide member 49 disposed in contact with the seat, having a first hole in which the first shaft is inserted, and having a diameter greater than the second shaft; an escape wheel 23 disposed in contact with the guide member and having a second hole in which the first shaft is inserted; and a fixing member 50 disposed in contact with the escape wheel, having a third hole in which the first shaft is inserted.

A moving mechanism for a decorative element of a timepiece, the decorative element including at least two decorative faces disposed around an arbor defining the axis of the decorative element. The moving mechanism includes a circular drive element arranged to be rotatable about a central axis and including an aperture arranged to reveal one of the decorative faces of the decorative element and inside which said decorative element is mounted to rotate about its arbor. The moving mechanism also includes first device for driving the decorative element in rotation about its arbor mounted on the circular drive element and arranged to cooperate with fixed actuation means provided in the periphery of the circular drive element, such that the decorative element rotates about its arbor to successively display its decorative faces in the aperture of the circular drive element while rotating about the central axis.
