hi,

i've seen a Patek pocketwatch coversion with this on the movement retailed by the 'non magnetic watch company of America'.

i'm very happy its a nice high quality adjusted Patek movement with wolf's teeth and rhodium plating, ut its the first time i've come across paillards balance.

if anyone knows anything about it i'd appreciate as much as you can tell me.

it sounds fascinating, but might just be a long name for something simple
