Bayard 8 day with Duverdrey & Bloquel movement

Shalom,
I am new here and I would like to greet you all.
I have a Bayard 8 day carriage clock which I am restoring.
Movement made by Duverdrey & Bloquel.
For that clock, I need to find a regulator arm or a complete balance clock.
I enclose photos for your review.
Does anyone have an idea where can I find such parts?

I enclose 4 photos that will better explain (I hope) what I am looking for.

Thanks,
Saul.

ebay is probably your best bet for spares as these are not made anymore to my knowledge.

They also have the name 'Bayard' on and are the same parts.

Thanks Clokfxr,

I wrote like 11 emails to the UK and France but none could offer the parts.
I ended up buying a compete clock that I will use for parts. The point is that the clock I have has a dedication on the back and that HAS to stay.

I was hoping that such clocks have been around for quite some time and surely, somewhere in a forgotten drawer, there are just the parts I am looking for.

Thanks again,
Saul.
