1. Take the watch off your wrist and turn the watch so that the back of the watch is facing up.

2. Use a watch case opener or a small flathead screwdriver to remove the back of the watch.

3. Carefully take out the old battery and discard it properly.

4. Insert the new battery, making sure the plus and minus signs line up with the corresponding symbols in the watch.

5. Securely close the back of the watch.

6. Put the watch back on your wrist and you're done.

Stand on one foot, while patting you head and rubbing your stomach... AND THEN... hold the lock/unlock button until the screen changes....the press the start/stop button which should get the seconds blinking so now you can begin to change things, switch to min/hr etc by pressing start/stop again. The orange run/rest button actually does the changing. good luck!

Welcome to Fixya,

Hi hope this steps will helped you in changing the battery but I just want you to remind that you have to be careful in changing the battery because it might affect the other part.


1- remove the crown by pulling away from the watch, use your thumb and index fingernail and pull , it will come out

2- remove all 5 gold bezel screws

3 - be careful,, the bezel/crystal will pry off easy

4 - be careful and remove the entire face/hands/watch guts all in one easy step,, or just turn the watch over and it will fall out

5 - small screwdriver and remove/replace battery

6 - reinstall watch guts/bezel and gold screws

7 - push crown back into watch

Thank you for using Fixya.

mcdevito75 here, A quartz mechanism can go bad just like a light bulb, depending on the watches age, wear etc. If your watch was stored for a period of time with a dead battery in it, that dead battery could hve leaked, ruining the mechanism. If your watch worked fine and the battery just went dead, make sure the battery contacts inside the watch are clean, use a Q-tip dipped in Alcohol and gently clean the battery contacts, press the button for the music part of your Lorus and make sure those contacts are clean and are meeting once the button is pressed, this you can see with the back cover off the watch. Makes sure the battery is installed correctly, and that the new battery number is the same as the old battery number. 364 and 371 are popular batteries for Lorus musical watches, even though your new battery is new, it can still be dead, who knows how long it was on the store shelf?? also, double check as some Lorus Musical watches have 2 batteries, 1 battery would be rather large ans sitting just under it"s hold down bracket see, as soon as you remove the back cover, if so, that battery must also be replaced. I have an old Mickey Lorus musical useing a 397 battery just 1 but my Lorus is burnt out. If all this fails, I would look for a small watch repair shop in your area and have them look at the watch for you.

mcdevito75 here, It"s possible the battery could be so ever slightly loose, or the battery could be weak and need changeing. Also possible, the quartz mechanism could be going bad and movement of the watch while wearing it keeps it going, with the watch off your wrist and at rest, it's just to weak to keep moving on it"s own. Best Bet is to look for a small watch repair shop in your area and have them check out your watch.

mcdevito75 here, Look for a small watcg repir shop in your area. It could be the mechanism is going bad. If you changed the battery for this problem and you have the same problem, then the quartz is ging bad, (the mechanism)

whats the issue?

mcdevito75 here, I would imagine this is a Mickey Mouse Lorus watch by the picture supplied. If it Has DAY / DATE function, here"s what to do, --- To set the DAY, pull the stem out to set, keep turning the hads till you rech the day, then push in the stem. To Change the DATE 9 number) slip your fingernail just under the stem and lift it to it"s first position (notch) this should allow you to change the DATE (number) without haveing to turn the hands so many times.
