For this project, we are going to talk about how to replace a battery in a traditional watch. These instructions will only work for a traditional screw-off-back watch. To complete this task, you do not need any prior experience, but you will need to have a basic understanding of tools. By doing this yourself, you will save money and gain basic knowledge about watch repair. Make sure you are in a well-lit area with plenty of space.
