I want to thank the members who made this build possible.

@Yoda for servicing and repairing the Angelus 240 movement! Fantastic job and a true pleasure to work with.
@Yoda for the Angelus hands at a very reasonable price.

@esdee for hand making me a new bronze horn lug case! A true artist and gentlemen.
@neckyzips for making the Angelus case back that gives it that special detail that completes it.

@pvirus for making me this beautiful Angelus dial that came out perfect. Was great working with a true artist.

@Madantique for the inspiration after seeing his Angelus dial build! I knew I had to build my own.

Wow that is a nice build 👏
If it was mine i would replace the torx screws on the buckle to sloted flat head screws to keep it closer to the period the SF was made.
Where does that buckle come from anyway?
