A resonator element includes: a base portion including a first end surface that faces a first direction and a second end surface that faces a direction opposite to the first direction, a first vibrating arm that is provided integrally with the base portion and is connected to the first end surface; and a second vibrating arm that is provided integrally with the base portion along the first vibrating arm and is connected to the first end surface. When the shortest distance between the first end surface and the second end surface is Wb and an effective width between the shortest distance Wb and the base portion is We, 0.81≤Wb/We≤1.70 is satisfied.
