Hi April, you can't adjust the speed of a quartz movement. If you're having a problem with one, theres something wrong with the movement and you should return it for a refund or another one.

There is a German mfg. movement that is adjustable, I had one but can't remember the name or model. It had a adjusting screw on the back for + or- seonds.

Early transistor movements that predated today's quartz movements were the only ones that I know of that were adjustable. Generally today's quartz movements are far more reliable than those early transistor models. Also, batteries often had to be replaced more frequently than today's quartz models
