Started by changing batteries on my partner's watches, which led to acquiring more tools than the job strictly required. This will inevitably expand.

A while ago my missus asked if I could change the batteries on one of her watches. I said sure, if I had the proper tools, I guess. Many months later, get the proper tools I did. Stay a while and see how that turns out.

Replacing them was easy, then I figured out closing the snap cases back up was not so easy, so I had to get another tool. Which turns something hard into something easy.

Just checked the mailbox and found something that will be helpful with a few things I have coming in the near future. You guys didn't think I'd be done after just replacing batteries on my SO's watch, did you? 😜
