loosetime Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 These are two Angelus SF-240, as you can see one with alarm and the other one without stem. The bridges to convert. Drilling the hole. Milling the bridge. Milling the wheels holes. The screw threads. Now, remove the Cotes for a brushed finished, and filling the antique alarm key hole. Making a special piece for the anti lock crown sistem. Lo siguiente para evitar que se mueva al girar la rueda, es practicar un agujero de 0.4 mm al lado de la rosca. After electroplating. The movement with another friends. Regards to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_brian_ Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Great, thanks for the post! I´m not sure I do understand how it works though... Anyhow good to see how it´s done. Thinking about a "minute repeater" mod? Well, that might be the next step... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donerix Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 So - will prices for non-stem wound SF240s go up or the ones for stem-wound movements go down? Can you put a price tag on this conversion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mir36 Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Is this our friend from Chile? The purveyor of the Angelus 240 Bridge for stem wind version on the bay? Anyone know which other parts are required to complete the conversion from key-wind to stem-wind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Absolutely stunning work. Lacking the skills, I have tried and failed to get someone to do this project for years.. Kudos to you. In any case thanks for this post. You have created my horological "Eleanor" (for those who remember the cinematic reference). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I need to find one of these to work on. This will be a year long project using one if Esdee's WL cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
