I have the press, and a watch repair toolkit that includes a number of useful items. If you have a few watches, and you have friends who still wear watches, it's worth having these things. Help yourself, help your friends, help family members... Plus, there's a cool feeling that comes with accomplishing things, especially if it's something that most folks will pay others to do.

Use a C-clamp. Place a cloth over the glass to protect from scratches. Tape the back down to prevent it from moving while you position the c-clamp. Tape a quarter ($.25 coin) or other stiff item over the back to prevent damage while tightening c-clamp. And another coin or similarly stiff item over the glass. Position the c-clamp and tighten until you hear the light snap. Remove clamp, tape, and coins. Done

@YourReviewChannel 4 месяца назад

That could be dangerous. You might crack the glass I would recommend an inexpensive press back.

@Bruce22027 Год назад

Wouldn’t snap closed by hand so I put the cover in the freezer and the watch in front of a space heater for a few min. That was enough thermal expansion/contraction to get it to snap together by hand (gotta work fast before the cover heats back up).

@YourReviewChannel Год назад

Good idea

@briandavis6485 Год назад

Mine wouldn’t snap on no matter what I did (without that special tool.) Finally, I took a little WD-40 and put it on a Q-tip and applied WD-40 around the edge of the backing. Then it snapped right on with hand pressure. The key was to decrease the resistance, not increase the

The battery numbers such as CR2016 have meanings. The CR2016 is 20 mm in diameter and 1.6 mm in height. These are the only ones I am sure of.

No matter what I did I could not get the back cover to go on. Tried the lube trick, tried freezing it. I even made a holder and put it in my drill press. Nothing worked. I finally put it in my vice, got the cover to snap on, and the watch stopped working. Anyway, I should have paid a watchsmith to do it.

I had one too. I found you have to make it hold between the bar at the top (behind the 12 o'clock position) and the small fingers at the bottom. It will stay as long as you don't turn it sideways or worse. The gasket makes it almost impossible to get the cap on. Good luck with yours. As I said above, mine is now on it's way to the landfill.
