Theres a shop round the corner to you in Lurgan that does watch batteries and traveling up to Belfast for the sake of a couple of quid is not worth it unless your up there anyway !

Why waste a lot of money!! You can buy a whole pack of watch batteries in pound shops & fit them yourself like I do:jJust be careful not to actually touch the battery with your hands-use tweezers!

Take it to Timpsons or any other shoe repair/key cutting kiosk style service. They'll do it in minutes, don't charge an arm an a leg and give you a guarantee with it. I'm sure there's one in the Rushmore Centre in Craigavon.

BTW: I took my own advice. Mine was changed in Timpsons last April and I've had no problems.

tried those packs but couldnt find one small enough,

where in Lurgan is that shop?

Even a jewellers in Lurgan would change it.

Ah right. I went along with it. I thought maybe he knew you. You ok with it now?

There were a couple of other places like Newtownabbey etc but I thought I'd make sure I stuck a city centre one in for you.
