It's a Citizen Eco Drive and it needs the NiMh cell replacing.

I've taken the plate off the back but it's all solid underneath.

I think it comes apart by taking off the bezel but I don't want to 'muscle' it before being sure.

Ta.

OK so I got off my arse and Googled it.

It's a 'front loader' (titter ye not) so I took the bezel off with a knife and ordered a new rechargable cell for £12.

Now I've just got to work out how to get the glass off.

It's either screwed or pressed into the case.

Any watch repair PH types here able to help?
