The October 2024 issue of The Horological Journal arrived today, and p407 has a brief article about Jim Arnfield’s amazing Inertially-Detached Gravity Escapement.

Apparently there is a good animation of this on the Instagram channel

@Vecthor_Animation

Not being Instagram-inclined, I have not viewed it … but browsing-around, I also found this:

https://engineezy.com/products/the-arnfield-gravity-escapement

… which looks like a jolly-fine introduction for those with 3D printers, or just some general curiosity.
