A piezoelectric vibrator which can be manufactured efficiently and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The piezoelectric vibrator includes: a tuning-fork-type piezoelectric vibrating piece which has a pair of vibration arm portions, excitation electrodes formed on base end portions of the vibration arm portions, and weight metal films formed on distal end portions of the vibration arm portions; and a package which houses the piezoelectric vibrating piece therein. A gettering film on which a laser radiation flaw is formed is formed on intermediate portions between the base end portions and the distal end portions of the vibration arm portions. A first metal film included in the excitation electrode, a second metal film included in the weight metal film and the gettering film are formed using the same material.
