In terms of the date hand, that may be a bit tougher to locate. Maybe the hand could be repaired if you cannot find a replacement??
We seem to see two or three of these per year on ebay, with prices in the $1800 and up range (for nice condition).
How is the outer track on the dial (dates 1 through 31)? Maybe it is just the photo, but these markings look weak.
Let us know what you do. I imagine that there would be some interest among the OnTheDash crowd if you decide not to buy it; and we would like to follow the story if you do make the purchase.

I have never owned one of these, or tried to have one serviced, but I would think that the parts for the movement would be in relatively good supply. This was a fairly common movement, used by several brands, and it is of relatively late vintage.
