Watch Escapements Ref: bk-wesc Main sections: - The Lever Escapement - The Pin Pallet Escapement - The Cylinder Escapement - The Detent Escapement THE BOOK: Look into a clock or watch and you will see that the pendulum / spring connects to a 'lever' that rocks backwards and forwards against a wheel [escape wheel] and this wheel turns (and connects to other wheels which eventually turn the hands) - but it's that first transfer of power [impulse] that is the cleverest and most critical part of a watch or clock, and it is this part of the mechanism that is called the escapement. Here, in the most intimate detail, we are shown the various types of escapement, how they work and how to adjust and repair them. THE LEVEL: This IS a very technical manual, the 268 illustrations are technical drawings, the mechanics are explained in terms of maths and physics (lots of angles). If your background is in mechanical engineering or you have a natural aptitude for dismantling and re-assembling elaborate mechanisms, then you will LOVE this book...if not, you will go completely dizzy after the first two pages.
