Thank you for contacting FixYa.<br /> If you are opening up the back for the battery, I would HIGHLY recommend that you have done by a certified Rado Service center.<br /> They will test for watertightness, seal it properly, change o ring and crown. <br /> If you still want to risk doing yourself then follow these instructions:<br /> <b>Locate a very small tab (or recessed area) on the edge of the back cover</b>. This is the access point for removal. You can find this sometimes by running your fingernail around the back rim, as this tab or indentation can be hard to see. <br /> <li> 2<b><b class="ecxwhb">Pull out the stem, which releases the back on some watches</b>.</b> </li> <li> 3<b><b class="ecxwhb">Get a small flathead screwdriver</b> it needs to be a thin inflexible tip</b>. Use a kitchen knife as a last resort. Wrap the hand you are holding the watch with in a towel or protect your hand in some manner so you don't injure yourself if the screwdriver/knife slips. </li> <li> 4<i><b class="ecxwhb">Very carefully</i> slide the blade under the tiny metal protrusion on the back cover (or across the length of the recessed area, depending on which type of cover your watch has)</b>. Do not attempt to insert the point of the knife. Use the length of the blade. </li> <li> 5<b><b class="ecxwhb">Get under the tab or recessed area</b> and gently but firmly turn the blade upward, popping the cover off</b>. </li> <li class="ecxsteps_li ecxfinal_li"> 6<b><b class="ecxwhb">When you replace the cover, make sure you line up the stem slot on the cover with the stem of the watch</b>.</b></li> <br /> <b>If you decide to send to Rado, then follow link:</b><br /> <a rel='nofollow' href="http://www.rado.com/stores_locator/default.htm?client_request_type=2">http://www.rado.com/stores_locator/default.htm?client_request_type=2</a><br />
