“BetterWay” to REMOVE the back of the watch…

[stableianForacle]

I welded a crowbar to the back of my Rolex and it got the back off so easily. The only downside is the watch movement and dial and glass need replacing now and the case and the strap.

Don't let this man near your watches

Only works on loose none waterproof watches
A decent waterproof watch would laugh at this idea lol

I bought a watch repair kit from Walmart. It was only 10 dollars and came with the proper tool for this and the tools to remove links from the band. I figured it was worth it since I own multiple watches

[lindabruns]

IT WORKED!!! It was so easy!!! Was struggling to remove my watch back and nothing worked until I tried your method. Thank you!!!

Just purchase a watch kit, they are cheap and makes the job alot more simple to do

[seanfishback]

I admit I was a hater and thought "This will never work." Just tried it on two watches and it worked amazingly. Didn't even need alcohol to remove the glue, just pried it off the cap when it was removed; super easy. Thank you!

You can actually get the back of these off with a silicone mat, a rubber ball, or something similarly grippy.

The problem is spinning it in the right place when it’s time to out it back after replacing the battery. I don’t have a hot glue gun and it’s about the same price as buying a watch repair kit.

Better idea: Just take your watch to a jeweler to get the battery replaced. Typically they'll do it for like $10 including the cost of the battery. And obv they know what they're doing just fine.

I change out about 300 watch batteries a month while the customers wait, I don't have time for this.

[joro]

How'd you learn that? Thx. Short and sweet too.

[gritsteel]

Exactly what I need, because I had pressed the cover back too much with a presser and it went in too much.

[Boankofa]

If it's screwed, get a rubber ball. They are often used for this purpose.
If it snaps off, you use a case knife. If used properly, it will not slip

[armengurun]

Nice trick, when you get less watch tools but i think this only happen on watches with hand snap back case, not with the watches with machine press back case.

Excellent video. Thank you very much. I just replaced the battery on my watch. Thanks for this video. I really appreciate it.

[GreenBugGaming]

A watch repair toolkit is like 20 bucks on amazon.

[daves-space]

Worked perfectly! Saving this as a useful tip for the future, thanks!

Not all watches will have backplates that pop on so easily. A neat trick, to be sure, but as a guy who replaces watch batteries for a living, I have to say, if you're not the the type that is comfortable with learning new technical skills and getting some tools for said skills, definitely just take your watches to someone else who knows what the hell they're doing. I even have a watch I'm taking to a jeweler...
