Oh, dude, changing the battery in your Elgin watch is like, super easy. Just pop open the back of the watch with a small flathead screwdriver, remove the old battery, put in a new one, and then close it back up. It's like changing the batteries in a remote control, but way more fancy. Just make sure you don't lose any tiny screws in the process, unless you want your watch to be a jingly mess.

It is simplest to have your local jeweler change it because one never knows the size battery to put in. There are several size batteries and they are all small. Also there are retaining arms and/or springs to consider, waterproof rings to recover, ect. Now, having said that, this is how you do it. Using a very thin blade, gently prise the back cover off the watch. Inside you will find a tiny round object. It is the battery, there is no other round thing inside that you can access without damaging the watch. Carefully remove the battery, using a toothpick or your fingernail. Most times it will pop up at the slightest pressure. Examine the battery for the size number. Common sizes are 379, 2020, 376, or 619. Buy exactly the same size as a "close" will not fit the watch. Remove the card, insert the battery and replace the watch backing, being careful to align the marks again properly. Make sure you hear a "snap" or "click" indicating that the case is closed.
