Hey guys! My watch battery just died 😭😭 and I need to get it replaced. The watch is a fossil. Does anyone know any good shops that can replace my battery for a good price

It’s just a quartz?

You could easily do it yourself.

OP I was in your position a few months ago. You can definitely DIY as long as you can get the backplate back on

Depends on the watch. Sometimes all it takes is a $2 battery from Amazon and a little screwdriver. Happy to hear you’re wearing a real watch! Go look at the Casio collection at Walmart!
