Hi
I need a pair of hands that have larger fittings than the usual. cannot find any on ebay. Large hand needs square hole 3.10 mm, small hand needs round hole 5.40 mm . length can be anything between 60 mm to 100 mm for the big hand . Anybody point me to a supplier.

Check out Timesavers for the many styles & sizes that are available. Type "Hands" in the search.

In the UK, where you appear to be, one of the major suppliers is Cousins. Others are Meadows & Passmore and John Wardle.

That's quite a wide range for length you have quoted. Usually the minute hand should extend to the outer radius of the numbers on the face, and the hour hand to the inner radius.

The radius is not important at the moment as I only have the movement , case will come later.

Sounds like an interesting project. If you cannot find hands with the exact hole sizes, if you get some that are under-sized then you may be able to modify them.
