Any watch makers/tinkerers on board?

I had a new battery put in my Lorus watch at the local jewellers the other day and since then it just won't go, they obviously want me to buy a new watch!
It's a very inexpensive model I picked up on ebay for almost nothing a couple of years ago, but it's a real favourite, light, slim, very plain face, but most importantly it keeps very good time
Browsing the web I see that with Seiko watches it's possible to reset the watch movement in these circumstances, by connecting the positive terminal of the battery with a point on the watch movement.
I'm wondering if anyone can advise whether this possible with my Lorus watch movement shown in the attached pictures?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Cheers
Chris
