Are they definitely the correct movements for the watch?
If that is the only issue, you might be able to bodge something. I picked up a franken sieko once that actually had paper to pad out the gap in between case and movement!

It looks like the correct movements. They all worked fine for a while but now they start moving around in there. This one has the least amount of play (only one I got at work):

Sorry for the VVS video, noticed it too late.

3 out of the 4 Russian watches I have are refusing to cooperate. Those three all have the same problem, the entire inside of the watch is moving around. If you move your wrist around you can hear the mechanism move around on the inside of the watch. I've opened all of them and checked for things that could be wrong but I see no system in place that should keep the entire mechanism stable. 1 of them now went to a full stop. It won't do anything anymore. I should find a cheap watch maker.
