Just started on a repair of a family item hairspring had been mangled I straightened that and started stripping the watch, can you see the quick fix that was applied!

Hey Chris, Looks like some "special engineering" to hold the lower balance jewel in place. That large screw,and whatever that other piece of metal are,do not belong.

Hi Cecil,
Yes it’s a old pallet bridge complete with screw jammed under there plus a interesting bushing substituting a lower jewel, turning out to be one of those real fun jobs…

Hey Chris, I have lots of those movements. If you need any parts let me know.

Thanks Cecil, I may take you up on that, I have it running but not as well as I would like a lot of wear and tampering in the past.
