路Why do you want to send it back?
What did you do with your other 30 watches? Did you ever service these? Do you have a watchmaker you regularly use? Perhaps that person could advise you better after they look at it.
Are you letting any feelings towards the seller influence how you feel about the watch? If so, you might be doing yourself a disservice. You have a nice watch, even in it's current condition.

路A lovely, clean piece - do yourself a favor and have your watchmaker look at it. A mainspring, as others have said, has minimal impact on the cost of a service. Even if the seller had it serviced, which I suspect is not the case, it is unlikely that they will do anything for you for free. If they had replaced the spring, it would not likely have broken. If they didn't replace the spring, they won't warranty a part that wasn鈥檛 replace. I would save the shipping shipping and take it to a watchmaker that I trusted.
I have been there myself on at several occaisions with watches that were supposedly serviced Before sale. I take the inference of service with a grain of salt, as the quality of work in said service can vary greatly from one watchmaker to another. Even with proof, you really don't know if it was done properly.

路路Nowhere near as grumpy as he used to be...Being within 1 second a day does not mean it doesn鈥檛 need a service.

路Take it to the one you trust. If you know that the local one is good - take it to him. If you are not sure, then wait until you get back in a month.

路路Omega Qualified WatchmakerThank you very much 馃榾
It's a nice example. Once you have it serviced and back on your wrist, it won't take long to forget the broken mainspring. 600 series are really easy to service, so this won't be a problem for any competent watchmaker. If you find one who has an Omega parts account, that's even better.
