Probably not long as everything would rust.... If I would just chucked it in a bath of white spirit/ one dip/ lighter fluid there would be a big chance it would run again.

Stupid me. Should have done that and flipped it in the sales section with a profit

Hahah back when I was a noob (many years ago), I had a cheap sea master rep which would keep stopping and I thought to spray WD40 into the movement to oil it. Not as bad as this but obviously it stopped working.

Now that I have built up my skills in modding and doing repairs on movements (not been able to afford the full set of oils for full service yet) I found this watch again, and being a 21J movement I couldn't be bothered to clean it piece by piece, so I just dumped the while movement into lighter fluid and let it soak for an hour or so while swirling the liquid from time to time. After drying it started working again! LOL
