Help me to understand from where is the power to make the first tic.
The clock is run out (the spring is unwinded). The clock is stop.
Fork is not moving, balance wheel is not spinning (balancing). The jewel is blocking the escape wheel by the last beat of the system.
We start winding the clock and the power from main spring starts to rotate the wheels one by one until the escape wheel is powered.
This is the magic moment.
HOW THE ESCAPE WHEEL MOVES THE FORK FOR THE FIRST TIC TO PASS THE ENERGY INTO THE HAIR SPRING IN THE BALANCE WHEEL WHEN THE JEWEL IS BLOCKING THE SYSTEM ?

I thought the middle wheel was minute wheel because the big one is slower? But that's just how I imagine it anyway
