Broken 6497 Help Required Please

Disaster struck! Was winding the 114 this morning and it suddenly started making a weird clicking. Next thing I know the whole thing unwinds. Turn it over and the ratchet that stops the spring unwinding has flown off inside. Got the case back off and it looks like the screw holding it in has just broken off completely. The tiny spring was there, so all the bits are out, but it went onto the floor never to be seen again. Absolutely weird, because it wasn't even half wound when it did it.

Any ideas on wether it's fixable, or am I better off just getting a whole new movement?

If it were me, I'd probably just replace the movement, mate.

I thought as much, Greg. I might just sell it as is for spares or repair.
