Yes, but a cal. 677 is only 12L (aprox 27mm) which is a little bigger than the size of an ETA 2824. So, you will need one big movement ring holder to secure the movement in place.

Thanx, I can buy the movement for 70 euro, is that a good price? I think it's cheap or am I wrong. My watchknowledge still isn't that big

I would not bother with thie as it's too small. The edges of the movt will be visible in the caseback. Do yourself a favour and do not jump at the first Cortebert that comes along. Wait for a 616 which is exactly the right size.

Thanx, I think I will do that, what is the price range for a good 616?

Anywhere between 50eu - 200eu. They are a fairly common movt so are not as hard to find as the Angelus movt.
