Be careful. Complaining about covid is how you get put on a government watch list.

It would take you 2 min to do it yourself.

So, fix the damn time.

ETA: mine is 24:05 slow right now. Says it’s the 23rd and 1:07.

ETA2: it’s dead nuts accurate now.

So strange, I bought my Seiko at the PX at Ft. Lewis, WA in 1971 and have never had the battery replaced. Still works fine.

What kind of watch? Even a Michael Kors (fossil..) you can replace yourself. On the back there’s little notches where you can use scissors or pliers to gently unscrew the backplate and swap the battery. Put a piece of cloth between whatever tool you use and the back to avoid scratching.
