Here's a recent acquisition that has some problems. I'm trying to decide on repairing or selling.

Grade: 89 Movement Ser Number:1635357 Est.Production Year: 1902
Run Quantity: 10 18s 17j Hunting Nickel Two Tone
Model 5 Lever Set Full Plate going barrel fast train
Adjusted to 3 Positions Adjusted to Temperature: Yes
Railroad Grade: Yes

I've determined so far that the balance staff is broken, missing roller jewel and also part of the micro-regulator.

On the bright side the movement has nice color, no scratches or rust.

Anyone have balance parts for this movement?

The Staff and Roller Jewel are no big deal, the regulator spring is something that can wait for a parts movement. When do you want to start?
