First you have to get an eyeglass and examine watch caseback. Can you see the joint or is it monoblock? If there is joint, get strong knife and press into it. Some of watch casebacks are very tight, so, apply great pressure but do not let the blade slip or you will damage the movement.
If the case is monoblock, then you have to open it from dial side.
Be very carefull when doing it as any slip of the blade will damage your watch.

Good luck.

I got the plastic cover off the face but cannot figure how to get to where i would put a battery in

Most pocket watches open in the back. Usually you have to have a very thin bladed instrument to pop off the back of the case. Since this is a gold watch I would take it to a jeweler to look at it since it is very easy to scratch up the case if you aren't careful.

Hi there hope you can assist me. My first question to you, and thanks lots I have a Jules Jurgensen watch, and it arrived brand new without a battery. 1) Does a battery for a 7837BR normally...

All watches should arrive with battery fitted. As now there are too many variations of watch movements, it's impossible to tell exact battery code without seeing the watch. Nearest watch repair shop will be able to tell you that.

Some one has over wound my gradads railway pocket watch and somthing has come loose in the back

Possibly the mainspring has been broken. I am guessing that you cannot see what has come loose. The only way is to open the case back and see. If that is what has happened then it can be replaced.

Take it to the jewelry dept at Walmart. Do you have one where you live.
They'll replace for free - Battery $8
Watch how they do it with their tools and you'll know how to do it yourself in the future.
Good luck
