I observed a strange detail yesterday, three SW intermediate bridges and they are not looking the same, one is different...

I copied one a while back, had it plated and compared the three bridges. Two has the pins for the setting wheels and one has a hole for the KW time setting arbor closest to the clutch wheel, really strange as it won't allow a stem to go in as long as the setting arbor is present. A conversion is possible without any issues, using the KW setting part after cutting off most of the arbor and shortening the tip of the stem so they won't disturb each other.
I know that I have done something like that in the early days of HF, I only used KW parts all the way and it worked.

Pictures in case you don't have a clue to what I am talking about.
