Thanks boss...
Impossible to press the bezel with the original gasket...maybe too much sanded down on the top area...however it works without the gasket...do I have to add GS hypo cement?

I have to order T25 plexi, reshape the CG, solder the brass NW tube, order a solid CB...

Yes, a bit of sealant would be a good idea.


Maybe teflon tape could work too? (Don't quote me on this)

Asciiwhite would even be less niminy-piminy and recommend silicon to glue it on :shh:

a very good work M., any plan for a build?
The one in the middle is a work for a member here and I hope that the one to the right will be sold to the interested party I discussed the details with.

The last one is a project, but it will be a full blown SW incabloc rebuilt with gen parts soon.
all the to are nice ones, waiting for the 3. with gen parts to see I guess it will be a beauty too
It will be an extensive conversion, it's a nice orphan KW non incabloc alarm movement and I plan to make it a SW incabloc non alarm movement. Thanks to Erlendh for this $100 movement!
I made the intermediate bridge for the stem and setting parts recently, having it plated next week.

I believe that I bought some of the last gen parts available for the SF240 a few years back. Now that I also have found the high cannon pinion/hour wheel set I can build a helicopter! LOL!

It was my pleasure, glad I finally was able to help you with something, after so many years with things the other way around.
