Watch Inspection

Watch Battery Installation FAQs
Bring your watch to We Fix It, located inside a Batteries Plus store near you, where a trained associate can expertly install your new watch battery.
Not all fine watches use batteries, but when they do, they should last for at least 2 years. However, just like cars or any other piece of machinery, there are several factors that affect the life of your battery:
- Whether your watch is digital or analog.
- The size of the battery.
- The functions your watch offers and how often you use them.
- How often you use the chronograph function (leaving it running will cause the battery life to decrease rapidly).
- Your watch being exposed to extreme temperatures for a prolonged period of time.
We'll inspect your watch to determine whether a dead battery is causing the problem. If your battery needs replacing, we'll use our tools to properly open your watch, remove the dead battery and replace it with a new cell.
