    Anybody know where to get a battery fitted in a watch in Dublin city centre, close to Grafton St if possible.

    Thanks

    you might be able to do it yourself. theres a huge pack of watch type batteries in many sizes sold in the 2euro stores. I got one pack because it had the battery I needed for a 30yr old camera I have, it also has the size for my watch that stopped recently! not sure what Ill do with the 40 or so other batteries in the back

    There is a watch repair shop upstairs adjacent Dawson Jewellers, opposite the whiskey shop at the St. Stephens Green end of Dawson Street.

    If the watch back pops off as opposed to the screw type then you could try the DIY route as mentioned above. I've done it with several watches.

    Thanks for the replies. Went to place in Stephens Green shopping centre and they were charging something like €15 (had to get a link fixed too and total bill was €35!) Crazy!

    if it is a screw down back a lump of blu tack + some wrist action works a treat
