Replace Watch Batteries

Shipping costs and logistics make it impossible for Arvo to replace batteries. The easiest, and in most cases, the least expensive way is to take your watch to a jeweler or watch repair shop. They will most likely have the battery you need and the tools to change it out.

Should you wish to DIY, following are some general instructions and tips for you to review:

Battery Replacement Instructions:

Generally, pop the back off, replace the battery and snap the back on.

Some detailed tips:

• Look carefully around where the watch back and watch case meet and you will see a very small and raised area where you can insert a tool to pry the back off.
• Carefully pry the battery out with a small tool. Be careful to pry on the battery only, so you don’t disturb other parts of the watch. The battery should come out easily!
• Put the replacement battery in the watch. Make sure it seats correctly.
• Look at the watch back to see if there is a small gap to accommodate the crown stem of the watch. If so, make sure you position it to do so.
• Lay the watch face down on a surface that will not scratch the face.
• Make sure the back is even and in place on the watch. Use something flat, bigger than the watch, like a small saucer and put even pressure to snap it on. It takes some pressure!
