    As the title suggest my PRC 200 is starting to lose 15 mins a day so the battery is going - how much should I expect to pay for new battery and water proofing?

    Also want to get this done by a reputable repair centre so any recommendations welcome! (Dublin or Cork)

    Here's a picture I found that looks exactly like my one

    Automatic orange monster next on the cards (no battery to worry about :P)

    Cheers

    Fitzpatricks Jewellers in ballincollig shopping centre is the official tissot dealer for cork, might be worth going there first, I don't have a clue about price though.

    There is a place on Abbey Street in Dublin (Back of Arnotts) that fixes watches.
    One of my friends took his Tissot to a Fields and they said two weeks to get it done or he could take it direct to the place they use.

    I got my Longines battery changed and pressurised for less than €20.

    got my tissot touch battery replaced, cost me about 40 I think - had to be sent back to tissot to get repressurised etc (it has a barometer)

    Just wondering where you got your battery.
    Was on Hols in Spain last month & kept my watch (Tissot ) on in the swimming pool. Water got in behind the face, & its loosing about 5 min per hour.
    Very dissapointed for the price that was paid for it.
