Will the 910 fit into one currently holding 911? Thanks!

Although the two movements are the same in size, the 145.013 case for the 910 has different external dimensions.

The exact dimensions of each case are given in this old article by Chuck. It appears only the thickness differs between the cases (by 1mm).

I have absolutely no idea whether each case will accept either movement. I'm sure the flightmaster experts/owners can confirm (I'm just someone who dreams of acquiring one someday... 馃榾 ).

I highly doubt so. Different dimension, different case curving (910 is flatter) and I believe different mechanism on the 9 o'clock sub dial may affect,too.

Thanks for the input....seems like almost little chance to get just one of the 145.013.,, have checked the past 'Parts and accessories for sale' without luck
Anyone have any leads?

Not sure if it's OK to revive such an old thread, but I can attest to the fact that the 911 movement will definitely fit perfectly into the 910 case, because I'm currently wearing one that was originally supplied that way, along with the original red-dot pushers instead of the later red/yellow pushers.

Do you have pictures and maybe the lov serial number?

The bezel is case-dependent, not movement-dependent, just like the crystal.

Yep, the 910 and 911 movements will fit any of the flightmaster cases. That means the 145.013, 145.026 and 145.036.

There are a very small number of factory transitional models which use the Cal 910 in the later 145.026 cases.
