Are you open to other things that would make your timepiece go faster. Does it have a bimetallic balance wheel for instance? Often times they get squeezed they're no longer round the arms get bent in that would speed you up. Also when you're looking at your balance we'll make sure you have even pairs of timing screws. It's amazing how fast you'll go if you're missing one of the timing screws so there have to be opposite pairs in other words if there's a screw on one side there should be a screw on the other side. If the hairspring is magnetized has oil on it or anything that causes it to be stuck together. Or for that matter it's touching anything. Also how was the balance wheel removed from the bridge oftentimes they're unpinned as do not do not have a stud and if that happens somebody will shorten their spring.

Matt Henning in Massachusetts can do the pivot, he specializes in this sort of work. Hi website is basic but his work is outstanding. https://www.henningwatches.com/index-2.html -

Added, with a new unique address for this forum. One simple option for some security would be make them understandable but not correct; like swap the parts before and after the @, and using at rather than the symbol? eg. xyz.com,at,johnsmith It should hopefully prevent web scrapers / spam bots recognising them?
