Watch Battery

athtrasna · 2012-08-10 13:03:27

Need to replace the battery in my watch - it's a very simple Swatch with a screw off battery cover. Is there anywhere I can buy the batteries myself in D15 or a place that doesn't charge the earth for a €3 battery. The jeweller in the centre near M&S was either €10/15 last time I used them.

They charged me €10.

I would have done it myself but I couldn't get the back off the watch :-(

I have followed your instructions to the letter - what can I expect to happen and when?

Pound/Euro shops sell multipack watch batteries pretty cheaply I seem to recall.
