Hi there guys,
I just received a AP JF diver v9.5 from one of the TD's on this forum and disappointingly i realized that the movement was flawed. At this point, I've had the watch for no longer than an hour until I realized the minute hand/hour hand do not move upon winding the watch, however the second hand works. I am able to set the time, it just does not move upon setting the watch.
I've researched that perhaps it could be a loose canon pinion but not 100% certain.
I did reach out to the TD however awaiting to hear options. I probably would like to avoid shipping the watch back and forth so considering fixing it at a local watch maker or having them replace the movement.
I was curious, will any 2824 movement fit?

^I have listed the above two, and do not know much about watch movements or replacements. I am debating on either two, however cost wise I am unsure what makes sense. Would anyone mind pointing me in the right direction and also a rough estimate as to how much I should pay a watch maker to fix the watch and or replace the movement?
