Timex S Cell Digital ?

[Dave84]

I completely forgot about this watch. It was given to me about 4 years ago and has sat at the bottom of my toolbox since. Not sure if it works.

Knowing my luck and history with quartz watches, it doesn't. The button on the front ( assuming its a button) seems a bit stiff too. 

Any knowledge out there on these. Things I can try if a battery doesn't get it going ?

Thanks, as always.

Why worrying about the bridge before getting to it?

More just hoping for the best planning for the worst.

Well, if you use a new battery to try, you can still store it for later use.

I have ordered one, its a small price to pay to see if it works. I just wanted to know if there was anything else I could do, Ie clean the contacts etc, I have no experience with digital watches just thought id ask .
