Seiko Kenetic Watch battery upgrade anyone here do it??
 

Anyone here that can do it for me at a reasonable price,My fingers are too big to attempt it, The watch is not worth much just sentimental as my Dad passed away last month and I was handed this, The jewelers want £85 to fit new battery, the kit 5M63 is only £11.99 on ebay, could also do with another link in strap too.

Thanks in advance

Pm me please

Pay the £85 if it means anything to you ... is my advice.

Pay the 85

Or pay the 11.99 then 60 quid in all the specialist tools and then hope you dont make a mistake and scratch it etc etc

Serioulsy though I have no idea how much the tools will cost, but I would just take it to a jewellers / specialist watch makers etc and pay them

Of course, you could keep the watch .... without battery, for sentimental reasons.

Deffo keeping watch Mr psLewis, It does still work If worn all day, we shall see what comes along.

I had a kinetic (very sentimental) that was damaged when the face got smashed, I paid seiko via my local jeweller £135 for new bracelet/strap, battery/capcitor. best money I every spent, I have my watch like new and runs so much better, when fully charged will last nearly 3 weeks without wearing. result!
