Huh. I must have gotten that from somewhere. There was this discussion in which the 885 and FHF 324 come up as allegedly having some interchangeability.

And a quick google of FHF find mention of the FHF 324 being the base for the Bulova 10AN, and from the bridge side, you can see a family resemblance. I googled 10AN set lever, and it certainly has more than a passing similarity to the 885 set lever.

I would say there's some connection.
