My Grandfather frequently said that you never know what you'll find when you get into a watch.
In this case, I find the hairspring collet is broken, and an attempt was made to glue it together. This couldn't have ever worked though because the balance staff pivot is broken anyway. I doubt I can get what's left of the collect off to replace it though, due to the glue.
I'll probably have to replace the whole hairspring.
