[time-nuts] Tool Needed to Access my Timer Battery

[EWKehren at aol.com]

You may find that if you left a battery in there you may have other  
problems. Having some expensive watches I leave that part up to an expert, take  
it to a watch repair place.

Hello  The Net:

When I retired almost 2 decades ago, I put my wristwatch in a  drawer and 
left it there.
I was hoping to never have to use it  again.

Wishful thinking.

Now I need it, but it does not work,  battery is depleted.
I need to open it up and replace the  battery.

Any idea how I get my Oysterquartz open. It does have a back  cover,
but is it a right handed or a left handed thread, and where can I  find 
the best tool,
without marring it ?

Also, any idea what the  battery part number is ?

I should consider replacing the o-ring seal  under the cover, any idea 
where to get one ?

After I replace the  battery, I hope to calibrate it, comparing it to my 
Trimble  GPS/DO.

Any help is appreciated.

I had considered getting  support from R-USA in NY, but previous support 
was horribly  bad.
