Most likely the watch was damaged when the battery was installed. Quartz watches have fragile parts in them. The coils for instance are made of wire thinner than the hair on your head. It takes almost nothing to damage these wires and the coil. Dirt is a big problem. Since a quartz watch has no force behind the gear train the smallest particle of dirt can stop a quartz watch.
Either your watch will need a cleaning or damaged parts will need replacing.
A qualified watchmaker can do this work and get your watch back in working order for you.
Hope this helps,
