<p>[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 154933, member: 25"]Because there is a problem with the escapement, possibly one pallet jewel dropped out. The empty screw hole in the base is where a long screw held a blank plate that covered the screws holding the pillars in place. Never any marking there. They are often lost. The top glass has to be replaced from the inside of the dismantled case. First you have to get a piece of glass cut and the edge bevelled.</p><p><br /></p><p>Clearly the escapement needs some attention too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
