Hello,

Thanks for writing in! Your balances appear to be a hybrid balance which will need to be a custom assembly. I am confident we are likely to be able to supply you with the replacements but I'll need a bit more information before we can move forward.

To start, I'll need to know the stamp/marking from the balance. This is typically located at the to of the balance tube.

Once we have this information, I'll be able to confirm pricing and availability for these balances.

Please let me know if you have any other questions in the meantime.
