when watches are made they are sealed with a gel that is not water soluble. that is so removal of the plate is made easier. you should first bring a large pot of water to just about boiling point not to hot because the internal components will not react well to intense heat especially if it contains springs, if it is a digital watch then boiling is fine. next drop the watch in the water for approximately 60 seconds or a minute. be sure to have a removal device ready before hand for safe removal. after you remove the watch just twist the face counter clockwise to remove. to reseal the watch replace the cover and squeeze firmly for about two minutes while it reseals. good luck.

∙ 13y agoIt is one of only 3 possible ways. (1) If it popped off, simply snap it back on using equal pressure around the edge. Be careful, as some brands can be very difficult and may need a watch press to do the job. (2) Better watches have backs that screw back on. Again, be careful as the threads are very fine. The back of the case must be straight so that you do not screw it on crooked. Sometimes the case back has 6 or 8 notches in it so a special tool can be used to help you do this, but you can do it by hand. (3) Usually with very expensive watches, the back will have tiny screws to fasten the back to the case.

∙ 14y agoThis type of watch requires a special wrench. If you look at the back of the watch, there are at least three indentations for the wrench, most likely six. This type of watch has a screw back, that is, the back is screwed on rather than just popped into the watch.
For best results, take your watch to a jewelry repair shop for battery replacement.

Theoretically you can twist off the back using a watch case opener, but the one I am working on right now seems so old and corroded, it won't twist off. You do have to take out the strap pins and remove the band from the watch to twist off the back.
