If you have patience I maybe able to get a couple made. I did a few for myself and a couple for another member. I assume you are referring to making a stem which will work with a normal 1.2 crown. You can also try VDB. He does them for his watches so he might sell you one if he has a spare.

Can someone confirm the issue is that the movement side is wider than the crown (can't remember if it is 1.6) but the crown side requires 1.2. I had custom stems them made for these two watches.

I can ask about getting a price for having several made. But I would need to get a count. It is the same way we make automatic crowns work with hand wind movements where there is no room for a stem adapter.

I am alos for 3.

But i maybe have an other idea if we can find a men able to do it :

To make an ADAPTATOR ; like in brass; one side with hole of 1.6mm to screw the gen stem, the other screwed in 1.2mm to screw in the crown;

So you just need to cut the stem short , screw the crown at one side , the stem at the other side;

Do you think it can be possible ?

I think it can be nice for cortebert or angelus, and will also solve the problem when some stem are too short :)

it maybe can be more easy than resized stem ; what do you think of it ?

I spoke with the smith and I am going to make 10. The cost will be $55 plus $1 or $2 for shipping. I am not making money on this and this is not intended to be a group buy - simply taking care of myself and other vintage fans. The intention is to purchase standard Cortebert 616 stems and retap to 1.2 (normal handwind size).

I will not request any money until they are in hand and ready to ship. I reserve the right as to who they go to. If this works out like clock work and people want additional I might get him to do another run but no assurances. I have PM's in hand which would theoretically account for 10 but please reconfirm you want them at that price via PM.
