Battery Replacement

We offer battery replacement on all types of watches. All battery replacements are fitted with Renata Batteries, which provide maximum reliability due to their consistently high quality.

Quality watch brands require the intervention of expert watchmakers and the correct tooling for battery replacements. Tic Toc Man’s watchmakers are vastly experienced in working on luxury brands, allowing you to rest easy in the knowledge that your watch is safe in the hands of the experts. At your request, we can also pressure test your watch to ensure that it is resealed.

We provide both a “while-you-wait” and fully insured postal service for battery replacements on all brands.

Luxury watch repairs you can trust.
Our Swiss-trained watchmakers specialise in mechanical and automatic timepieces, delivering expert care with complete transparency on pricing. No appointment is required; just bring your watch to us with confidence. With over 140 years of combined watchmaking experience, we service and restore leading brands including Rolex, Cartier, TAG Heuer, Breitling, and many more. If a repair cannot be completed in-house, we also operate as a support service centre for many brands and can securely process your watch through our authorised trade accounts.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to replace a watch battery?

Battery replacement costs vary depending on the watch type and whether pressure testing or resealing is required. Starting cost £18.00 + VAT

Can I change the battery on my watch myself?

While it is possible on some watches, doing so can damage the case, seals or movement. Professional replacement helps ensure water resistance is maintained.

Is it bad to leave a dead battery in my watch?

Yes. A dead battery can leak over time and cause serious damage to the movement. It should be replaced promptly.

Is it safe to open a watch back myself?

Opening a watch back without the correct tools can scratch the case and compromise water resistance. It is safer to have it done professionally.

How long do watch batteries last?

Most watch batteries last between one and three years depending on the movement and features.
