CH2301 battery replacement. How open compartment?
There are 2 ways that Fossil closes the caseback on their watches. It is either a 'pop-off' caseback that you will need to pry off. Get something very small and thin, such as a small flathead screwdriver. There is usually a small groove somewhere around the edge of the caseback where you can insert the blade. The other type screws off. You will need to unscrew the caseback. You can determine if it screws off by looking for 6 notches around the outside edge of the caseback. You will use these notches to insert a tool to rotate the caseback off. Without a specialized tool called a watch-wrench, I suggest bringing it to a store such as Precision Time or Tourneau.
Place the watch face-down on a clean towel to protect the crystal.
Gently unscrew the backplate from the watch with a small jeweler's screwdriver and set it aside.
Locate the battery compartment and remove the screw holding the cover in place, using the screwdriver. The battery is a small, round silvery button.
Make a note of the battery polarity before you remove it. Is the battery positive (+) side up or negative (-)?
Take the battery with you to a watch shop or electronics store to buy a replacement.
Insert the new battery in the compartment. Replace the battery cover and reverse the above steps to reattach the back cover of your Peugeot watch
