Thanks, and if the movement really isn't a dud I got it for a nice price :) Not expensive, not cheap.

The watch arrived today! Everything works, even the quickset. The watch seems to be keeping time, no idea yet if it's accurate. The rotor bearing is a bit worn, but is doesn't touch the caseback. The brushed finish of the case is still visible, the crystal has a few scratches, but is very nice, the discs might need some cleaning.
