Radiomir 1940 Case - Lug to Lug

Any idea on the lug to lug measurements on the 45mm and 47mm Radiomirs with 1940's style case?

Thx

424 may wear larger due to the wire lugs, at least thats what I found with that style case.

Rads typically wear smaller due to the missing lug mass (compared to Luminors or Radiomir 1940). 424 is a bit thick compared to manual Rads like the 232/249.
