question about durability

I recently bought a new quartz SMP, and then exchanged it for an automatic model a few days later. The jeweler asked that I switch bracelets because if some minor scratching (you know the ones). The woman used a very small hammer to tap out the pins on the links next to the watchcase. She then realized she put the bracelet on upside-down, and repeated the procedure. This made me very nervous. Could this affect the performance of the watch? I hope not but thought I would ask. The watch runs about 5 seconds slow a day and is a week old.
