Thank you;) But it doesn't look that good,opened the cb and can't see the hairspring,seems like it's missing :crazy: I did expect to see a broken stem inside,that wasn't new and not such a big problem.

That's a bummer. Was it advertised as "running, but not checked for accuracy", or "ticks, but stops"?

If it is missing, then some serious money will be needed. The last balance assembly I asked my supplier about was nearly $400....Swatch Group has taken over...

No,they were rather honest (copy/paste,with typo errors included;)): "Clock has not been opened needs a, fine watch maker to work on this clock."

"A fine watchmaker", that's a way of putting it..
