the hairspring may have jumped up over the regulating pins effectivly shortening the hairspring this requies a watchmaker to repair.

Hi honestfunguy. Take it back! Omega watches are usually guaranteed for 2 years or even 3 years (Co-axial escapement), so you should not have a problem getting it repaired under warrantee. No way should it be be gaining (or losing) 10 minutes per day, let alone 10 minutes per hour. Could be any number of things, from a broken mainspring to problems with the timing regulator, but they are very complex watches and should not be looked at by anyone apart from Omega whilst in warrantee, otherwise you'll probably void the warrantee. Hope this helps; Eagle58

mcdevito75 here, In laymans terms yes, it sounds correct, there are a series of gears between the main spring and Balance assembly (hairspring) These series of gears control the movement of the hands, and release of the mainspring, they are called a gear train, the shafts that hold these gears in place get oiled, when the oil gets old it"ll dry up, thus takeing up the space these gears (shafts) need to operate the gear train, thus makeing the watch Fast / Slow. Cleaning and oiling restores the proper movement to the gear train of the watch, the tech. will also check and regulate (Time) your watch.

The index is organised on calibre numbers, which does not appear to be the number you quoted but is should be another number that is on the back of your watch.

Hi,
You may not believe me - but I think it is You.
There are some people who stop watches from working - and affect electrical items.
These people are called SLIders - because of the original research on "Street Light Interference"
Be very careful around electrical items when you are stressed - or you could blow lightbulbs.
- Or it could be temperature this watch is responding to. If it stops when left somewhere warm - it's temperature related.

Kris,
The only way to find out what model of Omega you actually own is to open it.  This should have been done by whoever you already brought it to.  Omega only prints their model #'s on the movement inside the watch.  If you open the watch, look on the movement, you'll know what model you own.

Yes, this can be recalibrated from the outside. To get your chrono hands pointing in the right direction pull the crown out to the first position then click the plunger/ chrono button. This should move your chrono hand one click at a time to get it to the right place. If this does not work try pulling the crown out to 2nd position (all the way out) and try clicking the plunger as described above.
If this STILL does not work, which it should, then you'll need to go to an Omega dealer and have them take a look at it.

it is still under warranty contact the ,manufacturer customer service and ask how to get a refund for the faulty item under warranty

Have you tried contacting the manufacturer of the watch ? https://ccm.omegawatches.com/en/ I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

The chronograph resets at 0 on the recorder hands and the crono hand resets at 12:00 hope this helps.gabe
