The geared motor and pointer device are provided with a stopper mechanism which restricts the range of movement of the trailing-side gear when the trailing-side gear rotates in a counter-clockwise direction. In the stopper mechanism, the part to be touched by the stopper comprises a support-side protrusion which protrudes towards the center of rotation of the trailing-side gear, and the width dimension in the peripheral direction of the support-side protrusion is smaller on the inside in the radial direction than on the outside in the radial direction. As a consequence, even if the width in the peripheral direction of the support-side protrusion is increased to a certain extent in order to ensure strength, when the stopper mechanism is activated, the stopper touching part and the part to be touched by the stopper come into contact at a position close to the center of rotation of the trailing-side gear.
