Tried to find the definitive locating point for the hairspring on the regulator.
The photo is as I found it, I am thinking that the spring should locate inside the slot, otherwise why would it be there? This would move the hairspring a bit more outboard than where it sits at the moment.
Secondly, hopefully...... It will reduce the kinking effect on the spring, and perhaps improve / equalise the gaps between the coils.
This is me just writing down the ramblings inside my head😂
I can't act on this at the moment as I have a cough, and eyes are watering.
Ultimately it's just a question of trying it!
