I always thought Sir George Daniels was the inventor of the Co-Axial escapement.
Looks like the inventor was Charles Fasholdt, and he ''did it'' back in 1859..



And here the modern version of Sir George Daniels



Looks a lot to me that Mr. Charles Fasholdt invented the Co-Axial escapement and Sir George Daniels improved it.

Any thought????
I am a bit shocked about this ''news''...
