 I did consider the ball bearing under the centre tappet retaining screw, but this is gigantic in comparison to the screws securing the dial on a Chronometric Speedometer.....There should be two! Reg nailed those. Other small thread and associated electrical components are substantially bigger.

The small brass washer which goes between the spring and moving point on the brass contact assembly?

Against all odds, I recognized this flinging possibility just before releasing the points spring and saved that frustration.
