I recently dropped off an omega deville quartz to be repaired. The problem i have is i cant set the time, i was spinning the pin on the crown and it wasnt setting the time. Now, I paid $100. I receieved the watch and it was working fine for a few hours and then it stopped and started again. I tried to set the time but the minute hand doesnt move. I took it back today and the guy said its a "tricky" watch. He was getting the manual for it because there is a "special" way to set the time and date. Whats strange is if you push the pin all the way in and hold it the minute hand stops. He said with this deville which is maybe 20 years old you have to push the pin in and pull it out to set it, but for some reason he couldn't even do it. I think this guy is full of S***. Any ideas on what the problem is? And if he tries to pass this off as "fixed" what steps do you think i can take to get my money back? I dont know much about watches but i do know it shouldnt be difficult to set the time and date, He couldnt even do it.
