Admontium, Unobtanium and Vibranium melded together into Ultimate Ultron. The crystal still chips and scratches and the bracelet still gets swirlies though.

To VanessaCW21: kudos to you if you can reassemble that mess of parts. About all I could do is dump them all into an empty beer can, tape the top shut, and then shake the heck out of ithe can to scare the cat off the kitchen table.

I'm guessing the plates are made from 904 which is the same as their cases, the remainder will be the same as most other watches, hard drawn brass and stainless steel

Whether the plates are made from 904L or 316L or any other SS have no bearing whatsoever on how a movement is made or how it performs.There is nothing magical about 904L its just a chemical mix that's slightly different over say 316L.It has just 10% more nickle and 1-2% more copper and chrome all very cheap materials that's all.
