Would you mind showing a movement picture?

Ball movements are rare these days.

One of those had a donor hairspring, right?

I purchased this South Bend for a good price.

No case or stem but thought the engraved dial was nice looking. Seller shipped poorly and hands bent. I think it is a negative set, not really sure what type of case it would fit.

Movement is really interesting and has a blue hairspring.

I think cleaning the movement might be beyond my ability. Lots of screws holding jewels in place. I might give it a try, it did not cost much.
