Quartz watches like mechanical watches need to be serviced from time to time. If they been exposed to foreign substances like leaking batteries getting into their gear train then they definitely have to be serviced. But servicing a cheap quartz watch does not make economical sense it's cheaper just to replace the entire movement. -

Hi. When pulling the stem out to setting position look in the hole/s for a small tab moving into view this will br the release tab. Push gently. Attached is the user manual . You will need to skip through the Japanese version. Seiko 8B53 usermanual.pdf -

Hi you could clean the contacts with a fibre glass pen brush and try again, or remove the battery and spin it up on a line release too just to free the train and hands then refit the battery with the clean contacts. Or a Richard suggested just change the movement, looks like a miyota 2030 or 2035. Cheap to replace fron cousins or HSWalsh. -

Try pressing all four buttons at the same time - every segment on the screen should show for a second or two, plus it beep. That's a "hard reset" which should get it going, if the battery is making proper contact and there is no fault. I've just tried it with an old Klik of mine, with a new battery. If that works, it may take anything from a few minutes to a few hours to lock on to the time signal and set itself. Keep it away from computers & wifi devices etc. to minimise interference until it sets. Edit - mine set itself while I was typing that! Not bad seeing it's not been used for years. -
