Rich KuhnDUDLEY MODEL #2
I recently got this basket case. I will put the full restoration in the Time on My Hands area as I go through the process.
First I have to find out a few things. I know Dudley used Hamilton parts. For this project I need a complete balance and an escape wheel. Can anyone tell me what 12 size Hamilton this was based on? I am thinking a model 910. If this is the case are the balances the same and did they use the same escape wheel.
When you look at the pictures you will see why I am asking.

Rich KuhnIt would seem I have answered my own question. All the measurements match up to a 910. I have disassembled the watch and now know I need a pallet fork and banking pins as well. This will be a project. I first have to find a good 910 parts watch. I will ask Lin to transfer this to the Time On My Hands thread.
