Some have a pop off case, find the "lip" on the case back and put a small screw driver or anything else metal that will fit under it and pry it off that way. Others have a screw on case back and will have 6
square slots around the outer edge, you will need a wrench for this that you can find on ebay

My Geoffrey Beene wrist watch does not have the groove on its back cover. I need to remove the back cover, please help, thanks GB8087GUEK is the code on the back cover

It is a job for a jeweler
Changing Watch Batteries
Lots of posters ask "what is the battery in my (name of watch)" with a view to changing it yourself. This is a bad idea for many reasons. You don't have the tools or knowledge to remove a rotary screw on back, or the gasket sealant for a waterproof watch. Some fashion watches have 4 traditional screw and need professional grade jeweler screwdrivers. Also, there are about 20 batteries commonly used in watches, in various sizes and internal technology, Lithium Ion, Silver Oxide and Manganese Alkaline. If you buy them, you generally have to buy 10!

Don't sweat the details. Just take the watch to your local jeweler. They have all the batteries at hand and the tools to remove the back. It is done whilst you wait for $8 to $15!

I cannot remove (or for others who may search this issue "get the back off") my Esq by Movado E5055 watch. There is a little "lip" on the back cover. Right now, the position of it is...

You need to buy some watch maker tools to get that back off as it is friction fitted and is difficult to remove as try to lever it off . If you do not intend to remove it or other watch backs for battery replacements, then the best solution is to take it to a Jeweler as he/she will have the proper tools to remove it and a battery replacement for about ten bucks. failing to do that look at the following site for the tools. http://www.harborfreight.com/catalogsearch/result?category=General+Merch&q=watch+repair+kit

Hi. I have a DKNY watch NY4791. How do I remove the back to change the battery. Does it require a special tool that only a jeweler or watch repair would have? Thanks. -Susan.

Hi Susan, most Watches will require a tool to remove the back, some use a knife like tool, and some use an adjustable key type tool to fit the slots of the watch cover, so that you can unscrew the back off. Sometimes you can use a thin knife too, be very careful not to cut yourself, and also not to damage the rubber gasket. The gasket sometimes will need replacement on some watches if they are waterproof. I recommend having a watch expert look at it if you feel you can't do this yourself.
Also the tools are available on eBay. I hope this helps you. Joe

How to open the back of Kenneth Cole KC3434 watch to change the battery?

BASIC WATCH BATTERY CHANGE
Get a replacement battery for your watch. Some watches have the battery information stamped on the back plate. If yours doesn't, you'll have to wait until you've removed the old battery to see what kind of replacement watch battery you'll need.
Lay your watch face down on a non-scratching, non-skid surface. It may help to clamp the watch to the surface.
Remove the back from the watch. You might be able to pry it off with your fingernail, but you'll probably need a stiff, thin tool like a knife or screwdriver. You can also buy watch repair kits, which have the perfect tools for the job. Check the watch back for a small notch to insert your tool, but not all watches have these.
Remove the battery from the watch once the back is off. You might need to tip the watch over to let the battery fall out.
Insert the new watch battery into the proper space, first double-checking its size against the old battery to make sure it will fit. Press lightly into place.
Replace the back on your watch. Make sure you press firmly to get the back seated snugly.

If this doesnt work, then take to a local jeweler/watchmaker who is equipped with the right tools to assist you.

Best regards.

I have a fossil watch model fs4255 leather strap dress amber dial and I want to open back to remove old battery and replace with a new. i have a watch repair tool kit and replace all my own watch batteries...

mcdevito75 here, Even with the proper tools we still have to improvise at times, Instead of useing your case opener from your tool kit, use a steak knife or similar with a sharp edge inside that groove you"ve described, the cover will pry off.

Can't get back on watch

Some of the watch casebacks need a special tool (little press) to fit it back as human finger strength is not enough to close it back.
You need to find your nearest watch repair shop and ask for help. It is quick and easy operation, but without this tool allmost impossible.
Do not try to use any inappropriate tools (such as a hammer or similar) to force caseback back on as you can easily damage watch case, caseback or even movement.

Do not forget to rate, please.
