Question
QUESTION: I have a new clockwork  kit that  was  my brothers but I do not have  the  plans to put it together. I do not know where to get them.   The numbers on the clock  are      UW 32/1  SN 168169
Any help would be appreciated

ANSWER: not sure what you need here. the UW 32/1 is the Urgos part number for the brass and steel mechanical movement Westminster three weight chain driven movement. What parts do you have? weights dial chains hands pendulum etc??
the movement is all put together already. Do you have a case to put it in?

Answer
it is URGOS  BTW

the 4 legs on the back of the dial go through the 4 holes in the front of the movement and normally tapered pins are put thrpough the little holes in the legs on the back of the front mechanism where the legs go through( you could use opened paper clips?)  

weights go on the hook end of the chains heaviest on the right ( the left and right chain wheels need the chain with their hooks outboard of the movement - the middle one varies
