A reliable SAW device has excellent reflection and a small size, which is achieved by reducing the number of fingers defining reflectors, such that losses due to a large electromechanical coupling coefficient are small and the film thickness of electrodes has much less effect on frequencies of the device. In the SAW device having pluralities of first fingers and second fingers, disposed on a quartz substrate, constituting an IDT for exciting SH waves and reflectors for reflecting the SH waves, respectively, the first and second fingers made mainly from Al are disposed on the ST-cut 90° X-propagation quartz substrate with the Euler angles (0°, θ, 90°±2°), wherein the angle θ is within the range of about 110° to about 150°, and a normalized film thickness (H/λ) of the fingers is within in the range of about 0.025 to about 0.135.
