I recently bought an Omega Seamaster "automatic" watch. It looks great, but I actually don't like the fact that I need to wear it otherwise it stops ticking! I wouldn't wear it often it is frustrating to have to set the time each time I want to wear it!
So how difficult would it be to rip out the automatic movement and put in a battery-operated movement? I mean I have a $20 watch that runs off a battery and keeps great time (~1 sec/day) so it doesn't need to be expensive.
Does anyone know where to find cheap parts that will fit?
