Anyone know of a golf cart accessible place to have a watch battery replaced? Thanks in advance!

Wow - wish I would have known about this before I went to Victoria's Estate which is the store next to the ice cream store in Spanish Springs. I needed batteries in two watches and they charged $12.00 for each watch! This seemed a tad on the expensive side!

The Gem place in Mulberry does it for the price of the battery.

Unless it is an expensive Swiss Watch I just pop the cover off the back and order a pack of eight from ebay for about a buck each $8 total. Most of the cheaper watches use the same battery so I change mine and my wife's 10 watches lol. If the back of the watch is a screw off rather than a pop off then you have to take it to a watch man.
