Keep your eBay search broad, e.g.: "Omega 23.7".
That way you get a lot of 23.7 things, but much less if you include "balance" etc.

On-line shops like Urdelar and others also have parts, mainly staffs.
You may have to risk a donor movement to get a complete balance, so best of luck in the hunt..

It's a watch well worth saving.
