1. Determine Watch Model:
Identify the specific model of your Rotary watch. This information can usually be found on the back of the watch or may be provided in the watch documentation or packaging.
2. Check Battery Type:
Determine the type of battery used in your watch. This information can often be found in the watch manual or online resources specific to your watch model.
3. Gather Tools:
You may need small screwdrivers, a tweezer, and a spare watch battery of the correct type.
4. Open the Watch Back:
Consult the specific instructions for your watch model to determine how to open the watch back. This may involve unscrewing small screws or using a pry tool to carefully open the back.
5. Locate Battery:
Once the watch back is open, locate the watch's battery. It is typically held in place by a small metal clamp or retaining mechanism.
6. Remove Old Battery:
Gently pry or slide out the old battery from its compartment, taking care not to damage any surrounding components.
7. Insert New Battery:
Place the new battery into the compartment, ensuring it is properly seated and the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals are correctly aligned.
8. Secure Battery:
Replace the battery clamp or retaining mechanism to secure the new battery in place.
9. Close Watch Back:
Carefully close the watch back and secure it according to the instructions specific to your watch model.
10. Test Watch:
Once the battery is replaced, check to ensure the watch is working properly. This includes checking the timekeeping functionality and any additional features (e.g., date, alarms, etc.).
Important Note:
While it's possible to replace the battery on your own, if you are unsure or uncomfortable with any steps, it is advisable to consult with a watch repair professional or authorized service center to avoid any potential damage to your watch.
