An angled close-up of a smartwatch displaying various metrics, including battery percentage (53%), time (12:59), and additional data such as temperature and humidity. The watch is placed on a surface with paperwork in the background.

If ever an inanimate electronic object could bring about both angst and joy, it is this one. Garmin Epix pro 2 with the dreaded sticky buttons. Really glad to see it charging!

Close-up image of the internal components of an electronic device, showing a circuit board with visible wiring, damaged insulation, and solder points. The area includes exposed wires, a connector with gold pins, and a copper casing.

The image shows the back of a Fenix 6S Pro smartwatch with a gold and black finish. It features a white strap and includes details like "Gorilla Glass," "100 Meters," and "316 SS." Small screws are scattered

Sometimes the #prettythings hide the horrors inside. This #garmin fenix6s pro has a battery replacement at some time in the past by a careless tech. Time for some tlc, a new battery, and back to full service. #koolWatchRepairs #repair #aberdeenshire #RepairReuseRecycle #RepairDontReplace #battery
