My understanding is that the base is glued on after the internals are potted, so it is likely to drown, but if the bas comes off you could lose it, so I would try to force some epoxy glue into the crack and reinforce it. .
It looks like that is the case as well in Boz's picture.
Run a bead of silicone around it and should be fine
I ran a bead of silone around a repaired watch and it failed. If my mini-motion looks like that I reckon I'll try a trickle of super glue.
