Competitive Battery Replacement

Our competitively priced replacement service comes with more than just a battery change. Your watch will be handled by a professional who will disassemble it with care. We will test the voltage of your current battery in order to confirm its failure and will replace it with a high quality silver-oxide button cell. As part of the service we will also perform visual checks on your watch's gaskets and, if needs be, lubricate or replace them. Perhaps our most impressive attribute is that if there’s no fix, there’s no fee.​

Pressure Testing

 PRESSURE TESTING
We are now able to offer a pressure testing service
​for water resistant watches. 

The test is carried out onsite using an Elma Leak Controller
which creates a vacuum around the watch and
indicates any existing or potential leaks.

Testing in this way means that the watch is not immersed in water,
so leather or fabric straps do not need to be removed. 

With this test we can advise you if your watch will be safe to be submerged in water or not. We advise this service to be performed after a new battery has been fitted.

What We Do
Here's just a few of the items we can replace batteries in:
​•   Novelty Clocks
•   Car Remotes
•   Calculators
•   Digital & Analogue Watches
•   Spell Checkers
•   Quartz Clocks
•   Pet Collars

Clocks
Although our expertise does not cover repairing mechanical movements, we are able to replace quartz movements, as well as the hands. Please feel free to bring your clock in and we'll be more than happy to advise you.

Fitted Straps & Bracelets
We stock a variety of straps in lots of different sizes, colours & finishes.
They are high quality leather but are priced from as little as £7.95.

Also in our range are a selection of metal bracelets & expander straps, including the recently added Rose Gold and Black fashion colours.
​
Then there are the rubber and silicone sports straps, plus webbing and NATO designs.

We also stock replacement spring bars, split pins and buckles, so if yours breaks or just becomes unattached we are sure to be able to help.

Link Removal
At Forest Cobbler we are able to remove links in watch straps, whether it is a normal bracelet or an expanding bracelet. We can do this either whilst you wait or whilst you go to the surrounding shops. We take pride in our services and ensure that your watch is as comfortable as we can possibly make it, before you leave.
