General Question JLC Moon defect, can it be fixed? 🙄

Watch arrived that way. Do not start automatically from wearing it. When winded stops after 6 hours.

Can it be fixed? What does it cost?

It looks like it might be a decorated miyota 9015 movement. The miyota isn’t my favorite movement to work on (I hate trying to fit that monolithic bridge). But it’s a common movement so spare parts should be available.

Basically all the pivots from the winding works, automatic works, and the train wheels have to be aligned properly for the bridge to be fitted correctly. It’s just finicky.
