I ordered the balance springs from Christel fieberg Vertrieb- und Auftragsabwicklung Spiralfedern / Sales and Order Processing Spiral Springs Carl Haas GmbH Spiralfedernfabrik
The balance disc needs over bank pins of some kind. To stop it from rotating enough to let the feet of the yellow wheel from dropping into the release phase twice in one action. Same principle as a cylinder escarpment.. you’ll find a pin on the balance disc bit also a pin on the underside of the bridge for said balance. This is to stop it from over rotating from jolts or knocks when moving around.
Great stuff, very clear.
How did you make the balance spring?

@@Waterpearl_escapement Thanks, it has a strange surface finish that looks like it was machined out of sheet material
Thanks for the video - the slow-motion parts are great. Is "galloping" the same thing as "tripping"?
Thanks for the comment. You are right tripping and galloping are the same phenomena
@@Waterpearl_escapement due to the mainspring torque too high?
I have an 1860 Chaux De Fonds with Duplex escapement. Where could I find someone who’s skilled, willing, and competent to service this kind of watch?
It's a coaxial cylinder escapement.
