Typically the side with the numbers on it (+) faces out so you can read it when installed.

Hello. your best bet is to take the watch into any jewelry store that sells watches. They have a special tool which will allow them to remove the pins easily and remove a link or more. J.

If it is a mechanical watch (with a balance wheel), then the wheel might be loose in its bearings (which is why it works when you take it off, since the shaft is vertical).

If you have dropped it on a hard surface, then this could be the cause of your problem.

You need to take it to a watch repairer for adjustment.

Go to "Timex.com" and visit their online store.

If you put in "blue" in the colour of strap, then you may be able to find the one that you want and buy it from them.

The best way to do it to avoid damage to the crystal is to use a case back presser which you can find on ebay at reasonable cost. Be sure to replace the rubber gasket too - even if it looks OK - to ensure water resistance. Once compressed a gasket should not be reused.

There is a special caseback prying tool for that purpose. You can find them on ebay for a reasonable cost but you just might want to let a watch shop do it for you to avoid damaging the watch. Also, once you get it off, you have to get it back on which may require the use of a case back pliers designed to prevent damage to the crystal when seating the caseback, You will also want to replace the rubber gasket on the caseback to keep it water resistant. Even if it looks OK, the gasket should not be reused as once it has been compressed and removed it will not seal properly and allow dust and water to enter. Most shops, including Sears, will change the battery and gasket for about $8 while you wait.

Try a very small dab of a very light lubrican on the sealing edges.

If you haven't already tried it, press the edge of the watch back using two fingers and move them appart until they meet again.

Season with a lot of parience... good luck!

You have to clean hairspring. Unless the hairspring is spotless, there is no way the watch will keep time. Make sure hairspring coils are even and not touching. Rate me, please.

Assuming it's not a screwdown caseback make sure the gasket, if present, is properly seated. To maintain water resistance it generally takes quite a bit of force to snap the caseback on. There are special watch tools (caseback pressers) designed for this purpose to keep from damaging the crystal. Any jeweler should be able to handle this and probably will do it as a courtesy. You can buy the tool on ebay if you think it's worth the investment.

only from timex they need model and serial number of case back or and shop that sells timex will be able to order case back or any good repairer.

you need to try and place a blunt knife on the edge of the case where the caseback is the watch case apply a small amount of force. but remember your watch will not be water resistant unless you get it tested by a repairer. you will also need toAC your watch to make sure all your functions work.it should not be expensive between 4.00 and 10.00 depending if its also resealed.

There are two reasons for this. First- you distorted minute hands hole and now it is not sitting tightly on pinion. Second- when you pulled off the minutes hand, you lifted cannon pinion. As the result it is loose and swings freely. I do understand you have no knowledge how the watches are build, so, visit your nearest watch repair shop and ask to fix it. Please, do not take it personally - it is just because you can't do that without watchmakers knowledge, so, save your nerves, time and watch. Rate me, plz.
