VSF PAM 441 Love

[Elgabal82]

@bangsters very hard, and not possible without a true clone P9001/

Noob question: there is a way a modder/horologist can modify this movement to have the 12h GMT?

I am actually curious about 24hr -> 12hr. Wouldn't this just mean that the GMT hand moves in lock-step /w the hour hand, but can be independently set. This seems easier than having gearing in the movement that ticks the GMT hand 24hrs. (complete shot in the dark, and I don't know what I'm talking about)

That would be lovely to know....

Hope that some expert can answer to this question.

I have ordered my 441 from Ryan yesterday (waiting for the QC pictures).

I changed my order from 441 and 1312 to the 1359 (i like the dial of 441) and another 111 instead. Once i settle down on this pam addiction I will see if I can get a 441, hopefully by then someone has a mod to turn it into 12hr gmt hehehehhe

I think someone mentioned in another thread that a few gears would be required. Or maybe I imagined it. :lol:

I think I saw the same post bro. Although not sure if it's also doable to use the hour gears for the gmt as mentioned earlier... I got no skills on the movement so I don't really know lol

You just have to change this two gears and you have a 12h GMT

But you will not find this gears, so you have to build our own gears.
And that's the problem [emoji6]

Chris has mentioned the conversion procedure. It would be easier if the VSF factory did this. Nobody I know wants to machine those gears from scratch at the moment.

 

[bangsters]

Should the big gear be smaller, similar to the size used for the hour gear?

But someone know the sizes and specifications of theese gears?

Or the needed sizes haren't calculated yet?

Never produced by anyone?

(Sorry if I asked a stupid question)

I also don't understand it.
They have built a complete new movement from the scratch and they just missed the 12h GMT.

The excellent movement factory is very busy, they refuse any parts change , As it takes long time for stability assessment ,
The 12 hours GMT gears is very easy for change for me .
