Seiko beater glass cracked, diy or not?

As above, never done any watch repairs ever, if it isn't diy any recommendations for watch repairs?

I did it on my monster, i needed a watch press to get it to work. I was a little heavy handed and smashed 2 crystals in the process

You have be soooo careful with some watch presses, a few have a tendency for the screw to protrude out of the bottom of the interchangeable support thingies...instant cracked crystal

Ok so it sounds like no diy, any recommendations where to get it fixed?

Do you need to pull the movement to replace the crystal?

tbh I don't even know the model, I bought it in 2016 and will have to take a pic and do some reserach!

Found it, seems to have gone up a lot since I bought mine SNA225P1

Then diy is a nono, Crown/stem removal, seal replacement etc...get an expert to do it eh? IMHO
