I bit the bullet on this one. It's a lovely thing and, unusually, has the original leather travel case with removable panel so you can tell the time when travelling in your carriage. It's not a family heirloom or anything so the next owner can worry about putting the original hairspring platform back in.Potter wrote: ↑Thu Aug 03, 2023 9:26 am I'm in the same boat, I have a pocket watch family heirloom that I need repairing and servicing, I sent it to one place and they returned it saying they couldn't get parts so didn't want to touch it.
I think I'm going to need to send it to someone who can make parts and that's going to be eye-watering.
ETA of the serviced/repaired clock? 3-4 months!
Have a look at these people. I assume they can make (or source) parts. You'll probably find someone closer though.
