Default Watch Batteries ?????

I have a Gucci Watch (Ladies) 7800L that needs a new battery!

Does anyone know of a good place to get it replaced without having to send it off? I dont mind how much it costs - within reason!

I have looked a place up online but not sure about sending a £200+ watch through the post as would rather not get it done. :-(

Come on you Watch Guru's - Give me some help! :-)

Ta,
Bex

Just as an aside, I have a Casio G-Shock which I bought in January 1991 in Hong Kong.

It is still using its ORIGINAL battery

That's over 13 years





(I've had 2 new straps and one facia surround in that time though)

The 'Watch Doctor group', search to see if they have a branch near you.

No more that £12 with a seal for that model.

Yoza - Done a search on Google for that company but it doesnt come up in any search!

Does anyone know of a place in the Reading/Basingstoke area that is good with expensive watches?

Ta,
Bex

You're right - I've got a large alarm clock with green LED beside my bed, so no need for the background illum nor for using the alarm
