I have several Bolex 16mm S321 Sonor projectors. They are really the Rolls Royce of 16mm machines: optical/magnetic; continuously variable speed; variable light intensity; 2 or 3 blade shutter change while film is rolling and, of course, built like the proverbial Swiss watch. I can even find a halogen substitute for the incandescent (1000 watt) lamp.

My problem is lenses. It comes with a 2" 50mm lens. I badly need a 25mm or 35mm lens. The barrel diameter is 1 1/4". The machine has not been made for years and I have been unable to find any of these lenses. Any ideas?
