Thank you Duane! I had taken the back off but didn’t realize the battery was under a sticker. It was there the whole time after all. I’ve had this watch for years and never got this done until now so it’s nice to see it running again. Great directions on your part. I used to do all the battery replacements and band installs/ link removal at our department store as a young woman but it’s been awhile and I’m a bit rusty at this now.
