First one I have seen. I had a gentelmen to bring some watchs he had for years. He retired from the RR in Al. Hamilton 16s 23j Ball. I pulled the balance and was shock to see what was under the balance. I had to take a second look. I had been reading about the escapment the night before. This man both this watch from and older RR man that had already retired.
I am going to post an image later along with Ser. number. I will post them later

Don,t know how many but the number is small, They sure are a strange looking pallet with the upright stones and a strange looking pallet fork as well Smile,,It was something that was tried but did not work very well.
