The ST36 isn't an expensive movement, so it might be easier to just get a replacement for parts. Here's a listing in the U.S. for $33 + $3 shipping. Once you get current movement running you can tackle the tangles hairspring without the pressure of making it worse. https://www.ebay.com/itm/353824212893?itmmeta=01HYDN4TGZSXFCW4TXZ2THH0C1&hash=item526191079d:g:sT4AAOSwHidhcQO6&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8Jw5K76smZgFGzM5ubLY769v%2B6EbBphCYo99M48gxLxxMjir9tRyn32O8Q5AgmKh1aKUP%2FfaCOIz8a7YMGkflhGWus7BDQIzrs45yo8NCZ66Jmti1Qli2%2BjaAm%2F8Ogg81F17LdC5Ulu54cnXSOCtaMkQcp03pcluBqTAuZPxbYwkrOC38sb%2FtlDewlZBOhjtA7pZTTMAql7hFKbrkc5RyF%2BtGL2%2Br9BS7mzgd%2BxdDF08HcVn6rvOawDjEbMPs9mYSegv6DVnSoiYYpMGzPJE7Qyd782Brjl05GQTL9MzpFuWrQvUTNxyY5%2BNQi18XTmf4A%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR8yok7XzYw -

It appears to me that you have overlapped the hairspring. Hard to say for sure with the pictures you provide. If so, it is one of the easiest hairspring fixes. You will have to remove it from the balance cock and the balance wheel to do it right. There are videos that show how this is done. Off hand I dont recall where they are. Having said this, preforming this repair is advanced work. Put it aside and come back to it in six months to a year. Otherwise, you might make it worse. -

Thanks all for your support. Yes I did watch the chronoglide videos and also I knew that hairspring repair was likely too advanced for me. That being said what made me try it is: I thought I couldn't make it worse (I was wrong). In the end this is a practice movement without a watch so while it is very sad that it doesn't run at all, it was already broken due to the setting lever screw broken so not much to loose. I took some pictures but I don't think they really show the problem. maybe one with the balance in the movement would help more? Or should I detach the spring from the balance before taking a picture
