This is a first. it's the first quartz watch I've been unable to safely change cells on, yep it has 2 of them and I can't release either. 

It's an edifice that my google-fu has been unable to locate a guide,  video or otherwise , to  suggest ways to attack it. 

Does anyone know the trick for this model? 

It looks like this when dressed. Picture of Edifice

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can render.

You are supposed to peel off the white pads and then you can see the metal clips that are over the batteries. One end will unclip and you can pull the battery out. Make note of which way they came out because I have seen those with one up and one down. Then stick the white pads back on.

      Seiko 5M42-0E60/69 4GM7-BA 20 mm rubber strap

      By Willem1961 · Posted

      Hello WRT members I started a project 4years ago printing straps for seiko model 5M42-0E69. This because the strap wasn’t produced anymore and i needed a strap for my father’s watch that come to my possession. I found someone who was willing to make a computer drawing and than he started printing and worked out well. To build up the metal caps you need to have some patience but it worked.

      TIMEKEEPING PROBLEM: Impact of changing the platform escape wheel on a carriage clock

      By zygo · Posted

      Great help for me - thank you all. If the hairspring has been shortened, it must have have even tighter coils than it does now and they all look utterly concentric but nevertheless I'm not leaning further towards that explanation. For me, vibrating a new hairspring would be far from easy - I wouldn't know where to start.And if a new contrate wheel has been cut and mounted, it's been done very skilfully, leaving no obvious telltale signs. Cutting and crossing out contrate wheels takes skill, too, so a bit of a last resort. and why would the he have cut 70 teeth if the existing one had 75. The platform certainly looks original to the clock but I cannot rule out the possibility that it has been taken from a similar period one (with a different tooth count). It was produced by Soldano (who supplied Dent) and the movement is by Hollingue Freres (who worked for Drocourt) so it's a nice small one (not a miniature) but I have to say that it does look like it has been worked on by someone with a hammer and centre punch instead of a bushing tool. The history isn't know - the current owner has never seen it working. I completely dismantled it again at the weekend to make the tooth count but when I've figured it out, I'll take some photos. But for now, I think I've reached the end of the line.
