Does a new suspension spring really make a difference?

Two identical clocks were serviced. A new suspension spring was installed on one clock and compared to the OEM spring on the other. Amplitude was increased on the OEM clock when the old spring was removed and a new suspension spring was installed.

Hello, I am fan of you channel and I have learned a lot from your videos, now I need your help, where do you buy the suspension spring, because the ones I have bought I think are little thicker than the genuine and gets the clock fast almost 20 minutes per day, I will really appreciate if you share your supplier.

Great explanation. Aside from the balance amplitude do you find that a new spring affects the timekeeping? One of mine at the moment is being a little erratic and I am wondering if it is the spring even though I am getting great aplitude.

The short answer is yes a new suspension spring will improve timekeeping. One of the telltale signs that a suspension spring needs to be replaced is erratic amplitude. These clocks are very sensitive to every component and when one component falls out of spec it will affect the performance of the clock.

[e-mail] I’m currently overhauling 7 Atmos clocks but I should free up in one week. Most are in the regulation phase of the overhaul.
