Does anyone know where, in Doha, you can buy a battery for a 'sports' watch?

A friend of mine asked me this question earlier today. I didn't get a good look at the watch, but I think she said it's the type that gives details of your heart rate when you are exercising whilst wearing it.

I believe she has tried various shops which sell watches but without any luck and I guess she didn't buy it in Doha.

Who's stalking who, here in this thread??? [giggles]

Actually I almost said in earlier post on this thread, that I ought to just tell my non-QL friend to get a life and register here herself!

Poor thing. Her busy, outgoing life must be SO dull! lol

Has nobody told you, you are not allowed to have friends outside of QL. I hope the moderator does not get to hear about it, otherwise you may get into trouble.

There's a battery shop in the basement of City Centre (west end escalators I think) that has all sorts of those small lithium round batteries. Reasonably priced too.
