Clearly, it is faulty and has some type of parasitic drain. All watch batteries should last a couple of years. My Seiko last for about 3 to 4 years. Return it to Pulsar or a repair agent for repair.
This is my standard reply below. The is a small contact spring below, and a small spring on top the holds the battery down, and a small spring on the side as well.
Tip & How-To about Watches
Changing Watch Batteries
Lots of posters ask "what is the battery in my (name of watch)" with a view to changing it yourself. This is a bad idea for many reasons. You don't have the tools or knowledge to remove a rotary screw on back, or the gasket sealant for a waterproof watch. Some fashion watches have 4 traditional screw and need professional grade jeweler screwdrivers. Also, there are about 20 batteries commonly used in watches, in various sizes and internal technology, Lithium Ion, Silver Oxide and Manganese Alkaline. If you buy them, you generally have to buy 10!
Don't sweat the details. Just take the watch to your local jeweler. They have all the batteries at hand and the tools to remove the back. It is done whilst you wait for $8 to $15!
Click on the crown (the stem in the middle on the right side). There are three settings, and one of them will change the minute hands' behavior to normal. You might also check out this guide:
Model numbers and battery details etc. on Pulsar watches are normally stamped on the back plate but the serial numbers can sometimes be found on the inside of the back plate.
Did you check the watch battery? Pulsar watches run a long time! If a new battery does not start it up you can take a can of air and just squirt a little in the area where the battery goes (very gently) to blow out any dirt then install the battery and put back on. If it is still not working you need to take it to your local jewelry store to have an estimate for repair, usually 60.00 to 80.00. I hope this helps!
You'll need to go to a jeweler to get a new battery,usually they have to order it, BE PREPARED for a price shock. ihad to get one for my wife's watch a few years ago $68.00 just for the battery another $10.00 to put it in.
Enquire with either a Pulsar dealer or a watchmaker they may be able to get it for you. If you have a trade supplier near you they may also be able to order one if available.
