Should I give up on this pocket watch


Recommended Posts

Sell it on to someone who can.

I can't make a balance shaft , its too much effort  so I'm pretty content to just replace them if I can source parts. Otherwise it moves on.

Hi   the problem with old english lever and fusee watches was the manner of their manufacture, Plates made by one person the wheels cut by another and all assembled by the "maker". There are subtle differences in a lot of them that require broken parts to be repaired or re made individualy or if you are lucky finding a donor watch, best advice is if you neither have the tooling to make a staff is keep it for spare or sell it on for spares
