Need to change the battery

Tip & How-To about Watches

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!

It is most likely a 364

It is a Colibri. Out of business. Pretty low end watches. Sounds odd though. Is it a snap on back or screw on?

remove the crown and stem

Thank you for contacting FixYa.

Place the tip of your pocket knife in the slot on the back of the watch. Pry the back off.

Take your tweezers and grasp the metal piece that is hiding the battery.

Once that metal piece is out the battery should come out too.

Put the new battery in and cover it with the metal piece.

Put the back of the watch back on and snap it into place.

Best wishes. Jewel

mcdevito75 here, This is a very common problem easily fixed, when the battery was change the repair prerson could have interfered with the seconds hand bending it ever so slightly so it hits the other hands or it became loose, return to the person who changed the battery, they"ll take the back off and fix that seconds hand. Remember this may be no ones fault so I don"t know about any extra charges for service on your watch. This is just my info to you.

go to the store where u bought the watch....or any store where there sell batteries the normaly will exchange and fit it for u

Usually all quartz watches are supplied with calendar setting mechanism and it is very simple-
try to pull out crown and you will notice that there are two clicks,so, when the crown is pulled out to the first click, the date can be adjusted by the turn of the crown. When crown is pulled further out (second click)- the watch is in hand setting position and you can adjust time.
