Hair spring problem!

[Sunny]

Hi all

I would like to ask If it is possible to source a replacement hairspring on a old watch?

We need the I D of the movement. If you don't know it, take photos of the complete movement back plate, remove hands  and dial, a good clear photo of the keyless work will help us.

You stand a good chance of finding complete balance for it, as well as hairspring.

This is a Rego/lapanouse 144 based movement. I currently have 3 of these setup as Chronostop watches.

Unfortunately, spare parts are scare as chickens teeth! Good luck

Hi Nucejoe

If I am going to find a complete balance, how do I determine the size? 

I see some listing stated for example( 10 1/2" 125 rego)

What does these number indicate?

Many thanks

FLwatchguy has already identified the movement. 

Please find answers to your questions in ranfft.com and how he identifies movements by the shape of their keyless. Further, see the family of this caliber and more.

Let me dig in my bag of tricks, I just may have several NOS complete balance for the caliber. These often pop up on ebay too and are cheap.

Thank you FLwatchguy! You are very kind! Please let me know if you have any! I will keep an eye on eBay see if one pop up! 

Many thanks for your help!
