A horological device including an oscillator of a watch and device for stopping this oscillator embedded in a carriage of a tourbillon or karussel, including a rod arranged to axially push a lifting finger into an active blocking position, against a first spring tending to recall same axially into a rest position in which it bears against a carriage wheel, which lifting finger includes a ramp radially repelling a stop finger against a second spring tending to radially distance same from the axis, which stop finger is remote from the axis when the lifting finger is in the rest position thereof, and, in the active blocking position of this lifting finger, the stop finger can interfere with a stop cam integral with a wheel set of the oscillator, in an angular position remote from the dead center position of the oscillator.
