What does this gear wheel do ?


Recommended Posts

Its the centre seconds drive wheel attached to a extended pivot on the third wheel in the case of this movement the seconds hand pinion should be in the centre of the movement and held in place with a spring. On this movement that has been broken and only the end is seen attached by a screw on the barrel bridge and the second hand and pinion are missing
