Was repairing a Waltham S0 pocket watch and it would all of the sudden stop. Cleaned and reassembled and thought I had it solved. Great amplitude but “screech” it stopped. After looking at us with a stereo microscope, turned out the the Pallet Fort darr was rubbing against the roller table rim. Odd problem but fixed it.

      Is this a 'hack' ?

      Hi. In the picture not only does it depict that the wheel is bent but also the plate or is that due to th angle of the picture.  Already received very good advise so I will butt out.
