    Can anybody help with a pocket watch movement identification please?

    Long story short, I’ve been asked by a local watch-buddy if I can help with this - he agreed to help an elderly friend of his, for whom the watch holds treasured memories, with a repair - the balance staff has sheared and he thought it would be a simple matter of swapping the staff or buying a used movement to scavenge for parts.

    The problem is, there are no markings on the movement which we could use for identification.

    Does anybody recognise it?

    Thank you

    Richard

    You might need to find someone experienced in older movements, who could perhaps make some new parts.
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    I would direct him to someone who is a persona non grata here but would probably be able to help

    Ingersoll?

    I would definitely get in touch with Brendan Hoey.
    Cheers,
