Perhaps it is a practice movement. Generally, it isn't easy to assess the status of parts without properly cleaning them. What can appear as some deformation could in fact be something that doesn't belong in the movement. In this case though, I would guess that the staff is indeed deformed. -

I'm celebrating with you. Well done. -
I am pretty sure the correct practice to insert a tensioned crystal is to use a crystal press - although I always hate doing it as one slip and the crystal can skid across your dial, this happened to me on a Tissot, mangled all the hands and scratched the dial down to bare metal. I much prefer to remove the bezel and install the crystal into the bezel and then the bezel back onto the watch, not sure if this is an option for you? -
Well, Geiger counter showed up today and the dial and/or hands were extremely radioactive, reading quickly spiked from a baseline of 10-20 cpm to 100 and was still rising when I removed it. Trashed the whole thing. Thankfully nothing else outside the components was registering - work surface, tools, the paper I had used to clean off some components.... And now I have a Geiger counter to use to check practice watches BEFORE disassembly -

Usually the coiled spring contacts the piezo sounder and the finger spring is the ground.
