Pallet Stones
Precision at the Heart: Premium Watch Pallet Stones
The pallet stone is the heartbeat of a mechanical watch. As a critical component of the lever escapement, these tiny gems—typically crafted from synthetic ruby or sapphire—bear the brunt of every "tick" and "tock." Their role is to lock and release the escape wheel with absolute consistency, converting the mainspring's energy into the precise measurement of time.
Whether you are performing a full restoration on a vintage heirloom or conducting routine maintenance on a modern caliber, the quality of your pallet stones determines the amplitude, beat error, and longevity of the movement.
