Hi there,

My everyday watch a Tissot PRC 100 Titanium has just stopped working.

Does it need to go away to have seals replaced or will a simple few pound battery change do the job?


Thanks in advance!

If you want it waterproof to 100Metres it needs to have battery replaced by watch specialist who pressurizes the case. My Tissot is waterproof to 200Metres, when replacing the battery I had the option of either having it sent away (takes 1 week) pressurized to 200Metres or the shop could waterproof it to 100Metres straight away, at cost of about 30quid, I just went with the 100Metre option so I could get it done immediately. I can't see myself or anyone going down to 100Metres, let alone 200Metres lol.

Don't take it to Tissot. They change £40 and it takes about 4-5 weeks.

Get it done by the local jewellers for £5.
