Daniels Co-Axial escapement, as several other purists have noted.
It is the Daniels Double Wheel Chronometer escapement which George had developed some years prior to the Co-Axial.
I saw the prototype of this 10 years ago as did several others, and was very much taken by the development of the movement, many of us have been waiting to see the final watch which now appears to be here.
Frodsham has made many superb watches and clocks.
I have attached a photo of a Frodsham, 31 day travelling Chronometer Ca. 1890. It is one of 7 Frodsham made and is the only one that is 31 days going and has a Spring Detent escapement, plus is has a Duo in Uno hairspring and Frodshams balance with auxiliary temperature compensation.
