Waterbury clock - can be repaired?

Hello!

I'm a total newbie to this and was looking for a bit of guidance...

I'd love to get my great-grandfather's clock working again. It's a Waterbury clock from the early 20th century, I believe. It hasn't worked in years and is partly disassembled. I wonder whether it can be put together again either by myself or by some repair shop.

I have taken some photos of the clock and the bits and pieces lying in it.

Any help or advice will be much appreciated

I am not really familiar with those type of clocks, but my advice would be to check out the clock shops around your area. They should know how to repair those models, any decent clock maker/repairer would be able to troubleshoot and repair.

It is a cool model though so I am interested to hear how it goes. Make sure to follow up.

Looks like most of it is together, so it should be an easy task for a clock person to put the rest of it together.

Thanks! When I manage to save a bit I'll take it to a shop and see

Its nearly there. Just a bit of tlc should see it going again.
