Received my second vintage Longines Thursday, and today received my vintage Poljot 17-jewel dress watch (below).  After winding the Poljot, it wouldn't start running at all.  So I was, like, "Oh crap!"  I popped off the case back (easy on this model) and gave a few nudges to the balance wheel.  My CPR did the trick!  It's my $25 special!  Still waiting on a vintage Bulova and Elgin.

Nice clean dial on this one. Looks to be in excellent condition. I wonder how old it is?

If it is sticking (B wheel) and it is 36 years old or so, I suppose it might need some lubrication.
