I would expect the battery to last more like 3 years than three weeks.
Did you replace the battery yourself? If so, are you sure that it's the correct one correctly fitted? Did you use a quality make of battery?
I've known people to use metal tweezers to fit batteries - the risk of shorting the battery is very high with the result that battery life is seriously reduced.
Look at it this way - the watch cost you over 300 bucks, so it's a decent quality watch. Take it to a professional to have a battery fitted - it's not worth the risk doing it yourself if you're not completely sure what you are doing, and if the battery they fit fails then you can just take it back to them to sort out. Having a battery fitted for you should not cost a lot of money - but if you have somehow damaged the watch by trying to do it yourself then it will have been a very expensive way to save a little money....
Kinetic dive watches utilize motion, or kinetic energy from watch or hand movement. If there is inadequate movement to keep the watch going.
RECOMENDATION:
1. Involve some much needed physical movement (Physical Training) that will both help the wearer and the watch with the watch being the judge of if he is moving enough every day?
When you took the old battery out, did you look for the number? Did you purchase that same number or a equivalent battery? Have you checked with the instruction booklet that came with your device?
I don't know what battery your watch takes. I would expect a jewler would replace the battery for you for the cost of the battery.
Try AWCI.com for someone in your area. I recommend a good watchmaker even for a cell replacement, they will usually clean the case and band, do a consumption check, a min run voltage test and a water resistance test and new seals to keep watch fresh.
you can go to this link and in the upper right corner type in the model number not the module number (there are instructions for finding the model number if you don't know it) I found a band for a watch that is over 8 years old on here. http://www.fsiwebs.com/shopcart3/SC_ProdList.asp?
I just called the main headquarters and they sent me 2 links for FREE!!! 1-800-840-2933 my model # for my watch is 20/1897T1 found on back. Hope this helps :)
