1880s Fusee watch pins

[DavidJBrown]

HI, I have successfully dismantled, cleaned and started to assemble a Fusee pocket watch. The top plate is attached by brass pins/pegs rather than screwed down. The ones I have removed are broken, and I was looking for replacements, I have searched on a few sites cousins etc, but I can't see m to find the exact thing. I have seen bracelet pins, but I'm not sure if they are too big.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cousins has them, they are listed as clock pins. You will want to get a few sizes, probably the 3 smallest ones.

Thanks @nickelsilver, the order is in, I got my micrometer on the one of the old ones and the smallest ones will do, I got some of the others for future jobs.

Regards

David

if they have assorted sizes sometimes that helps because they don't always seem to be exactly some size. This is where access to a lathe is nice because sometimes you have to make the pins.
