Hi. If the alternative is not available it is advise able to effect a repair on the faulty coil by the method you choose, it’s either that or the watch is scrap pending finding a working donor. -
Newbie here too, but I’ve done a bit of reading around this subject. Looks like a Breguet overcoil. You’re right about A and B - A is just a minor tweak - but most damage is between B and the stud. Pivots can be unbent, but there’s a high risk of breaking it off. Take care, and probably see how it runs before trying. That’s really dirty. I’ve never found IPA to loosen Shellac. If you’re worried, put it in soapy water in the ultrasonic and then dip it in IPA as a quick rinse to displace the water and prevent rusting. As for the stud - does it wedge in the angle and the screw holds it there? -
No, it is browser dependent - your browser may have a spell checker you can switch on in settings. A quick search on Google may help you if you don't use Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/12027911?hl=en-GB -

What you can do is type it in say Microsoft Word use the spell check in that then cut and paste it here.
