SOURCE: taking back off relic watch
If this is screwback, then there should be grooves for inserting case
opener claws. For this yoy need case opener with interchangeable claws.
You can buy it on ebay for approx. £7.00.
If the casebask is
snap-on, then there shouldn't be any grooves, just small opening (lip)
between the caseback and case. This is exact point where the
watchmakers knife blade must be inserted and pryed up.
Do not forget to rate, please.

I suggest that your watch has an oxidized contacts and electricity can not reach the movement.
Do as folloes:
Take out the batttery,
Clean (scrape) all battery related contacts till they are shiny (use hardened steel needle for that),
Use the dust blower to get rid off any tiny dust and dirt particles after cleaning,
Refit the battery back.
Now your watch should work again.
If all written above do not help, then there is a problem with your watch and you will need the help of the watchmaker.
Do not forget to rate, please.
SOURCE: how to set the time on relic watches
I had to go to the Sears counter to fix mine. The sales person had to use TWEEZERS to pull the serrated knob up. He had to really work at it. Once it is pulled up you can twist the knob to set the time and then push the knob back down. What a stupid design.

Thank you for contacting FixYa.
I would try to see if you can find another local watchmaker as it probably is something very minor. If you dont have any luck with that, then this is where I would suggest:
