The a649x is a reliable workhorse in my experience.
The decoration on that one is pretty cool too.
It might not be worth a fortune, but I wouldn't call it junk.
Arguably my favorite movment I own is a DSN 618 (which is just a beautifully decorated a6497).
I own several angelus 240s and they are all high maintenance and unreliable.

It's an IWC vintage pilot movement copy.
The IWC 98300
But it's based on an Asian 649x

Re: Any idea what this movement is?
That example has cdg and yours has a pretty unique decoration pattern. I wonder if these were used in another watch also? Was your movement re-finished by someone?
