Job 44 – 3 Watch Batteries
There was a variety of symptoms on this job. The Seiko had had some fogginess inside the case indicating possible water damage. The battery was indeed damaged and had leaked, but the watch worked with a new battery. The Timex was normal, not running, but had no battery in it at all. The Nautica’s second hand was keeping good time, but the second hand was jumping 2 seconds at a time instead of ticking normally one second at a time.
For all three, a new battery was all they needed.
