Volna/Vostok 2809

Hi

Picked up one of these recently (Soviet copy of Zenith 135) and saw that the hairspring is quite a bit off centre. I've taken it off and positioned it on the cock so you can see how far out of position the stud is. The other photo shows (I hope!) that this is a Breguet overcoil, which I'm not familiar with. Does anyone know, or can see, what the problem is? Any advice? Thanks

It's usually the terminal curve which is off. The rest on yours looks ok to me.

I think you are right. I was mostly unsure what line the terminal curve should follow but found an example online. Seems to have worked OK, but I'll have to wait until it is cleaned and assembled.
