I just did the measurements and calculations using your method. I used a 120kOhm resistor, which just happened to measure exactly 120kOhms, and I measured my test bench supply at +4.987V. Hooking these up in series with the meter movement, I got a reading of 42.5uA on the meter. I measured the voltage across the meter at 0.065V. Using Ohm's law, R = V/I = 0.065/0.0000425 = 1,529.41 or about 1.529kOhms. So my estimate wasn't too far off, but I assume this is a more accurate figure.
