• I actually got a battery and watch service kit off Amazon.

    Peanuts and figured it would pay for itself.

    I don't need it to be sealed as I don't use it to wash up.

    Speaking of which my 2000 series needs a new one again! Better get onto it...

    (Although I'm strangely addicted to the 5 second sweep)

  • I've got the same kit to replace the battery in my Formula 1, it's probably not waterproof any more because the rubber around the bumpers has almost fully disintegrated so I'm not too worried about it. That said I do plan on getting a new o-ring and lube to help the case be sealed.

  • I was toying with your suggestion but this is the only watch I’d need it for and I don’t really wear it much. I’d also have to buy some sort of magnifying kit so in the end I just went to the bloke in Vauxhall. The watch is so old it’s never going to be fully waterproof without major work and I don’t use it for any aquatic action.
    All done;
