Victor,

Hello and welcome to our fine club! I'll just go ahead and tell you what everyone else is going to tell you anyway...let's see a picture of this fine little rarity! A movement image might give us a clearer idea of what we're "looking at" and if anyone here can help with the parts you need, I'm sure they will gladly step forward and do so.

William

Victor, I'd love to see a picture of the movement. I've never seen a 3s Waltham. The serial number in the data base says it's a 3s, model 1873-3, hunter case, 16 jewels. They also list it as 500 made.
