They will really have to have good tolerances, because now there are two wheels connected via a gear instead of just the one in a Lever escapement. The wheels themselves interlock because of their shape, but there's going to be additional backlash.
I'm wondering if the hollow areas in the wheels provide some impact shock resilience with the sides flexing a tiny bit.
