You can fix a meter movement. It depends on where the break is. I had one where the
break was at the coiled return spring, those springs carry the current. I had one where the wire to the spring broke, I could see it, so I resoldered it. I made a itty bitty soldering iron by taking my 30W soldering pencil, and attaching a regular piece of wire to it and using the end of the wire left sticking off the end of the pencil to solder with. Yah you will need to be plenty lucky, have a good magnifying glass & light. After wrapping wire around the pencil, flow solder onto it to help with heat transfer. If it's bad in the wrapped part, with the movement pointer, you may not be able to fix it... You would have to take a lot more stuff apart.... More of that surgical skill.... Good Luck... .
