There is a thin rubber ring gasket that goes in between the movement ring which stops the movement from rattling, nor sure if it’s the oem solution but mine had that. 
best of luck

So still have the watch and it’s still in pretty good shape. Only downside is the seconds had stopped sweeping, stays put and moves around on its own randomly. Watch still ticks and keeps perfect time. Going to take it to a local shop to have it serviced and looked at. Was curious what the model # would be for the crystal, found some on eBay. Might have to source a new/old movement if I can’t find parts…i’ll post when it’s all said and done!

Hi Kyle - the correct movement for the 2892 case is 11ALACD, the crystal is p/n 1402AWD
