I had a MFJ "atomic watch" at one time. Got it at the Huntsville hamfest. But it quit working a long time ago, I replaced the battery but can't remember what the problem one, in any case it hit the trash pile. That one was pretty pricy by my purchasing power. Most of my watches are in the 2-3 dollar range from Ebay. DW has over 2 dozen watches that I annually have to replace the batteries in. I would say about 95% of the women's watches use an AG4 battery. I buy them on Ebay, a hundred at a time for about $8. Men's watches normally use a bigger battery, and it is a commonly used one that I can't remember the number for. Old age I guess. I have a lot of batteries for various little gadgets. I also watch Ingles for a sale on Rayovac AAA, AA and C/D batteries that they have on sale about once every 8 weeks for $1 a package, usually just under $4 when not on sale.
