Here's the inside of my Timex Expedition Dive watch. To reset the watch after replacing the battery, press down with a small screw driver on the metal tab that the red arrow is pointing to.

There is a process to make an all reset. After the reset try again. The user user manual can be downloaded from Timex. Make very sure the watch is absolutely flat and far from metal objects. Even being near most furniture can effect the reading because they can have metal springs. Many homes have a lot of metal in their construction. It's best to calibrate the compass out doors away from power wires or cars or anything metal. On the street you can have metal under the pavement.
If this does not work call Timex. There have been instances where the compass module or sensor had to be changed. I have the same watch. It's a very good one.
Proabably it is "stuck". I often find that a sharp flick or two with my finger on the face of the watch will cause it to start running. Should not need "resetting".
Yesterday, I have just replaced new battery of CR 1620 but it gets no sound as you. I found that it must be resetted that I don't know how. I'm trying to find it out.
Low battery can cause this type of fault! Make sure after changing the battery to do the all reset inside of the watch. If this does not work get in contact with Timex for how to have their watch sent for service.
I think you put case back wrong way ,, or a small spring which connect caseback with watch movement feil during battery change that also ma be a issue.

Timex stores are the only place I have been able to find their straps consistently. If you have a standard lug set up you might be able to get a similar after market strap at your local repair shop.

hi
i am not an expert in this particular case but i followed theses below steps . here are they.....
Unscrew the case back with a case back tool (aka Jaxa wrench) which engages the notches in the case back. I'm assuming the watch has a screw back - if it has notches it does. Pop out the old battery.
In some watches you have to unscrew a clip but in most the battery pops right out. Examine movement for evidence of battery leakage or other damage. Carefully clear away any crud at the edge of the case - the tiniest metal shaving will short out the coil. Install new battery of same type. Handle new battery with non-metal tweezers or rubber gloves, never bare fingers. Inspect case back gasket or preferably just replace it with new o-ring of same size. Gasket should be lubricated with silicone grease. Reinstall case back using wrench. If you are concerned with water resistance the watch needs to be tested in a pressure test machine. I'm sure the pros have more tips but this should suffice for a Timex where it would not be a big loss to damage or break the watch.
i hope you can successfully replace the battery
thank you
