First the Rotary Revelation battery debacle, now this............


I went in today to my local jewler to have the battery replaced in my Tissot PRS 516 for the first time.  He said that this is a complicated procedure and I could come back in a week for the watch.  He told me it would cost between $35 and $40 for the procedure.  Otherwise I would need to send it to the factory to have the battery replaced.  Something about how it is a sensitive operation to switch the battery due to the chronograph complication.

Does this sound correct to you guys?  Have any of you had a battery change in a PRS516?  If this is not correct, I will go in on Monday and pick up the watch before I am overcharged.

Thanks for your help.
