Only having small (female) watches means I have no screws that fit into the plate/bridge holes of this 740 movement:

Anyone have some spare screws I can buy for this movement?

Or could the Radio Shack be an option? Mr Green

EDIT: caliber added

Still looking Sad No spare movement found yet. You don't see this caliber very often it seems. Could I go for 754/758 screws?

The movements still are in the '37 and '39 materials catalogs, but unfortunately Gruen did not have show the part interchangeability info in them yet.

My gut feeling is that most of the plate and bridge screws will be the same. I would go for a 754/756/758 junker.

If you are done with it I can take it off you as I'm still looking for one as well. I have a 756 which has a problem with the setting parts. Should not pay more than $15-$20 for them (there are a few on the bay for astronomical prices...)
