hey

I need to remove and replace a pin  on the regulator.

Firstly whats the best way to remove whats left of the broke one.

Can you buy the pin or the whole regulator? I see you can buy regulators for clocks on cousins.

What size do they come in?? pin  size      regulator size???

If i can only buy the pin how do you go about replacing it.

cheers

Pins are available on Cousins:

The punches I used I bought on ebay and I see a lot of them for sale in 'job lots' of old watchmakers tools... I'll add some photos tomorrow unless someone else can point you in the right direction beforehand (if they're even needed).
