Balance Staff

A balance staff is the central axle of the balance wheel and one of the most delicate components in a mechanical watch movement. It supports the balance assembly and allows it to oscillate accurately, helping regulate the timekeeping of the watch. Balance staffs are commonly replaced when pivots are bent, broken, worn, or damaged during repair or restoration work.
