You may find that if you left a battery in there you may have other problems. Having some expensive watches I leave that part up to an expert, take it to a watch repair place. Bert Kehren In a message dated 2/15/2011 2:43:52 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, stanw...@verizon.net writes:
Hello The Net: When I retired almost 2 decades ago, I put my wristwatch in a drawer and left it there. I was hoping to never have to use it again. Wishful thinking. Now I need it, but it does not work, battery is depleted. I need to open it up and replace the battery. Any idea how I get my Oysterquartz open. It does have a back cover, but is it a right handed or a left handed thread, and where can I find the best tool, without marring it ? Also, any idea what the battery part number is ? I should consider replacing the o-ring seal under the cover, any idea where to get one ? After I replace the battery, I hope to calibrate it, comparing it to my Trimble GPS/DO. Any help is appreciated. I had considered getting support from R-USA in NY, but previous support was horribly bad.
