Hi to all members, some advice wanted on removing the back off my Omega quartz watch, Problem is that the back has no notch for the removal of the back plate.

 

Any advice welcome.

If there is no visible notch, you will need a single sided razor blade, a Stanley blade and a case knife.

Very carefully press the razor blade into the joint, this will lift it slightly without marking the case, then do the same with the Stanley knife which will raise it a little more to allow you to use the case knife to prise the back off. Please be careful when using the blades.

As Geo said, and I would add, put some tape on the razor's edge in order to protect the case...MHO
