My watchmaker recently only charged me $40 to change my SMP Bond quartz battery, test the movement, and pressure test it for WR. But, it was cheap because he didn't have the seals in stock to replace the 3.5 yr old ones. I still get the friends and family prices.
I don't swim with it anyways, but it passed the WR tests. I may send it to Omega for this next time, or make sure I order new gaskets in advance of the battery change.
