Hi I would be inclined to re check Waggys comments, although parts come from the same family they also maybe slightly different. firstly remove the pallet anD check the pivots are ok. If so re fit and try again if you get the same result remove the drive train fit the pallet ang the balance only Ā A small puff of air should set the balance swinging and the pallet moving for a few seconds if not remove the pallet and re check end shake and side shake as that looks like where the problem is. Check all the wheels are in their correct location as there is no sign of the escape wheel After further scrutiny I can just see it. A better picture of the escapement would help -
Ya- its a strange picture- I see a toothed wheel where the fork pivot should beā¦and no pivot at all through the jewel
