No mechanical drop-in. The Miyota FS00 is a quartz caliber; swapping it for an automatic of a similar diameter changes power source, height and hand heights, so it is a case redesign, not a drop-in. The exact donor to buy and the dial, hand and stem checks before you order.

Donor movement for the Miyota FS00

Which movement drops into a Miyota FS00 case, and what has to match beyond the footprint.

No mechanical drop-in. The Miyota FS00 is a quartz caliber; swapping it for an automatic of a similar diameter changes power source, height and hand heights, so it is a case redesign, not a drop-in.

The Miyota FS00 is a battery quartz caliber at 28.60 mm x 4.85 mm. Replacing it like-for-like means another quartz movement of the same family and footprint, not an ETA, Sellita, Miyota or Seiko automatic.

Matching diameter and height is necessary but not sufficient. A donor is only a true drop-in when the dial-foot positions, hand-hole sizes, stem length and calendar layout also match. Two movements can share a case and still need a new dial, re-broached hands or a cut-to-length stem.
