Ball-Illinois parts "Click" to Login or Register

I've had this watch that someone scavenged parts from for a long while. I think it's time to try to put it together. I've been able to locate a dial, hands, case, set lever, and balance wheel. I still need to get all 4 balance jewels, 4 pallet jewels including bridge and pallet fork, and cap jewels for the escape wheel.

I think I can use Bunn Special parts for most jewels, pallet fork and bridge. The balance jewels will be the hard part because they are a larger diameter (~2.6mm) than the Bunn Special (~2.2mm)

I have been unable to locate the setting parts, as they are different from a Bunn Special I have looked at. If anyone has a watch like this and could supply a good close-up photo of the under dial parts, or has a parts list for this watch, I would be grateful.
Mike
