Battery replacement problem on La Crosse K2-100 Wrist Watch

If your numbers dim when you push any button, it's probably a battery. If your numbers are off or very faint same problem, battery. Those watches take a 1.50 V cell because of the light, and multi functions. Any decent jewelry store should be able to have you in and out in 10 minutes or sooner.

Good luck, gabe.

This is the model with the exposed button on the right side. The back does not come off, but the front does! If you use a loop you may be able to see a notch between 7 and 9 O'clock. Be very careful because the gasket keeping the watch water resistant is right there. You do not want to harm it. I put the watch in a holder and place a very thin jewelers screw drive on the side. With a jewels hammer I tap lightly until the front comes off. You must then carefully remove the movement from the case and not touch the hands. In order to close the watch after battery replacement, a watch press is a must. Without the press, you won't get the watch closed. The manufacturer suggests taking the watch to a qualified professional. You can send it to the manufacturer as well and they will change the battery for you. The Manufacturer is La Crosse Technology in La Crosse Wisconsin.

Take your watch to your nearest watch shop and ask them to do it for you.

You can get into difficulty replacing batteries and it is not worth the risk for
the small cost saving in doing it yourself.

I assume that you do not have a manual for your watch, so you can get one by going to their web site http://www.lacrossetechnology.com/support/manuals.php and choose the manual for your watch.

Try shorting the battery case to the watch chassis (using a pair of tweezers perhaps).

This seems to be a standard instruction and I think this resets the watch.

Click on my profile (escapement), then click on Tips and Tricks. There you will find link to all LA CROSSE watch manuals.Rate me, please.

Manual doesn't help. I changed the battery but the watch is still not powering up.

If you are not familiar with battery replacement and do not want to do it yourself, then nearest jeweller or watchmaker shop will do it for you.
If you wanna try it yourself, ask me questions and I'll guide you how to.

How do I reset watch after changing battery?

altitude changes depending on pressure; because you are along ocean, you experience it more than usual.
M problem is that temperature remains higher than normal one (30°C), can you solve it ?
