For this project you will need the watch you are replacing the battery on, the new battery and a mini flat head screwdriver.

You will need to take the back of the watch off. To do this you will turn the watch over to the back side and look carefully for a small groove opening. This is where you will use the mini flat head screwdriver. Insert the flat head screwdriver into the groove and pop the back off of the watch.

Take the white plastic ring out of the watch. You can use the mini flat head screwdriver or your finger to pull it out.

When the pin is pulled out, the battery is not being used. Only push the pin in and set the time when you are using the watch. This will preserve the life of your new battery.

First time I have done this and I have somehow lost the white plastic! Is this essential?
Yes. I can’t get the plastic spacer back in right. I guess that is why I can’t get the back.
I'm trying to figure out the type of watch that is can anyone help me that? This is the only place I can find an image of it. I recently purchased it private sale and they couldn't remember.
Googling the model number on the back, LDC74709W, leads me to believe it’s an unbranded watch that was sold at Walmart in the past.
Yes this has been suggested to me by a local watch repair expert and after that i have replaced two times by own using this screwdriver.

What kind of watch is this? I read purchased the exact same one private sale and don't know what model it is and this is the only place I have seen one.
