[QUOTE 3494815, member: 9609"]Why ?
total agreement with the first bit, but never heard the second bit before, I regularily work on hgvs and can't think of any reason why you would need to specifically remove a watch or bangle before disconnecting a battery. I never wear a watch or jewellery of any sort ever, and agree it would be pretty stupid to do so when working on big machinery, but don't see any specific dangers if you are just disconnecting a battery.
Obviously the following would not be a good idea, but I doubt that's a bag of spanners she's clutching, or shes on her way to fit a new battery

my dad put his arm down the front of the engine on his pug 305 many yrs ago.
his watch arched on the alternator and the strap turned red!! Melted his skin like cheese.. he should have seen a plastic surgeon but he just wears the scar..very dangerous to have metal things near car electrics
