Dear Forum-members
Austria's got a long weekend due to tomorrow's national holiday.
Time for us to prepare the material for the upcoming shows in Munich, Vienna and London. 




No, this is not the new "do-it-yourself-Felix"! It's a riddle. Find the missing part. One hint: It's neither the strap, the buckle or the springbars.
The first ten with the right answer winning tickets for upcoming Salon QP nov. 12th to 14th.
Good luck!
Maria & Richard

Where is the...

...hairspring??? Not sure if I see one... Correction: I think one of the items that looks like a wheel next to the balance wheel, this might be the hairspring. If so, the missing item is the wheel that is driven by the hammer. Is it? BR Kolosstt

The movement ring?

Maybe its there by the dial. I thought it was the bezel. This message has been edited by aditya on 2015-10-26 03:14:49
