Getting the back off...HELP

[Luke]

Hi, I really just wanted to know if anybody could give me some advice on how to get the back off this watch ( battery change) or point me on the right direction for which tools to use ???

Interesting. Hadn't see one like that.

 

My first instinct is that it's a screw down back that you can have your pick of which holes to use all along the periphery. 

Good luck!

It either screws off or pops off. Do you have a watch back wrench? They have three adjustable points that would go in three of those holes at 120 degrees apart and you would the just turn the wrench counter clockwise to unscrew it. Failing that, if it has a small lip around the very edge of the back somewhere, then you would use a blade designed for the purpose to pop it open like opening an oyster. Don’t try using a pair of needle nose pliers to unscrew it. Too many backs are covered with bad scars from trying that shortcut because they didn’t have the right tools. Steve
