Ladies Gucci Wrist Watch
15 Answers
I have a watch about 12 years old. I don't remember the model - but it is fold with a white and black rimmed face and black on the reverse. Until now I have always had the battery changed at the same place. However I have recently moved and my cousin - who apparently changes the family's batteries(!) offered to do mine. However, after replacing the battery the back covering bit won't seem to fit on. Does anyone know of any quirks in getting this to fit! I can only think that that it has got out of true when removing but it all looks ok. Now I have a watch that is going fine but can't fit on the back piece.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.If the back has a cutout for the winder make sure that is properly aligned then press the back on. It may need more pressure than you can exert with you fingers so put the watch face down on a towel to distribute the pressure evenly on the face and place something flat (like a coaster) on it and press down with the heel of your palm.
Presumably this isn't a "screw" off/on watch back, because if he got it off it would be easy to get it back on. So, it's going to be a lever off / press on back...these can be difficult to remove, and VERY difficult to replace. There is a special tool for this job....slightly different designs but all exert a lot of pressure in the right place....this is just one type.....

Also, I should add, you don't take a watch or clock to a jeweler to be repaired: you take it to a qualified watch/clock maker. The jeweler will say that they can get it fixed; however, they send it to a watch maker to fix, and then you're paying the watch makers charge plus the jeweler's commission.
