    Okay basically I have a load of watches, that over time the battery has died. Now my collection isn't extensive nor expensive, but I do like watches.

    I have recently purchased a tool kit for watch repair and maintenance. Problem is I need to source batteries for all my dead watches.

    Can anyone suggest a retailer for watch batteries that are cheap, with reasonable shipping. Thanks.

    Ebay pretty much. There are a few suppliers in the uk. Just search for Renata and the number model of the battery you need and filter by cheapest first. That's what I do anyway.
