They are not metric bearings. You could do a unit conversion though.
3.175mm x 9.525mm x 3.962mm

I totally understand you (Mexico here) but sadly this reel was made in USA with all SAE measures including bearings, so, they have to be that exact size as Alan pointed down

I was gonna shop for some cheaper Chinese bearings which are listed in mm, but I went ahead and ordered from that nice gentleman on da bay instead. Not worth the time to shop around for 'em.
