I'm not trying to get on you or anything, because I do certainly want those who have an interest to do their own tinkering. I'm just trying to encourage people to do these things the proper way, as short cuts are never a good thing in my view, in particular when it comes to cleanliness of a movement.
In your photo I see setting parts left on the main plate, the click is still mounted on the barrel bridge, the date jumper is still mounted on the calendar plate, and the barrel has not been disassembled. These are all things that in my view need to be taken apart to properly clean the movement, and also for lubricating it after cleaning.
Now will there be any serious negative effects of leaving these parts on the movement? Maybe not, but the proper way of doing this is to remove all these parts to ensure the surfaces are clean before adding in new lubricants. The one that is most likely to pose problems is the barrel in my view. The barrel arbor and holes in the barrel drum and cover need to be checked for wear (excessive side shake is common), the end shake of the arbor needs to be checked and adjusted if needed (and most of them need it in my experience), and of course I would also replace the mainspring, but I do that on every watch I service.
Just some things to keep in mind for your next project. If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask.
Cheers, Al
