You’re probably flattening the battery when you install it. It you touch both terminals for any length of time you will short it enough to deplete the battery.
Where are you getting your batteries from?

I probably got them from the imaginatively named https://www.watchbattery.co.uk/
The last battery was fitted by Alsal who are probably a bit less hamfisted than me.

This watch has stopped working. It was fine for a few years after I bought it but started running slow and then stopped. I've changed the battery a few times but that hasn't fixed it. Is it potentially fixable for a reasonable amount (I don't think the watch cost much more than £100)?
