See, the cylindre escapement is not free oscillating escapement. The balance is never free and friction in the place where the cylindre wheel teeth touch the cylinder is present all the time. You need to perfectly clean and lubricate at least the escapement parts. The best lubrication I have found for cylinders is Moebius 8200 grease. Just a little quantity on the traces which the teeth have left on the internal and outside surface of cylinder. The down side pivot looks bent. This is no good, but if the free oscillations test is OK, then probably the movement will be able to work. -
I'm not sure but the following lot could possibly be worth making a offer if you're looking for spare parts. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2332490.m570.l1313&_nkw=315358235604&_sacat=0 -

See, just do exactly what I have written. The pin wise must hold the cannon pinion, the cylindrical part of it. The pliers must hold the square head of the pin. Nothing is going to crimp. -
Dial needs removing to get to the keyless for inspection. Worn or broken setting lever, or just springs weak press on set lever. -
