I used to wear a self-winding waterproof watch, but it died and I've been unable to find a replacement. Vermont Country Store does have a wind-up woman's watch, but the description doesn't say that it's waterproof, and it costs $79.95! When the battery in my watch needs replacing, I bring it to a local pawnshop where a worker replaces it and just charges for the battery. I think jewelry stores and any stores with a jewelry department might do that, too, if you ask. I prefer men's watches. Most men's products are more sturdily made, the numbers are easier to read, and even the dots between the numbers are easier to read. I also like watches with metal stretch bands. My hands are the only small things about me, and non-stretch bands slip right off unless links are removed. Good luck getting a new watch!
