the jewel setting will need to be replaced if cracked or broken, always test to see if the balance staff pivots fit the jewel holes, what is odd is the numbers 711 and 772 are Elgin movement numbers for the 13/0 I think, you have an 8/0 so that could be an issue, your also missing the cap jewel for the escape wheel on the the train bridge.....
