Movado 0605016 Wrist Watch Questions & Answers
How do I put the back on a Movado watch
When I replaced the battery in my wifes' Movado, I discovered that replacing the back is dang near impossible by hand. I guess that is why jewelers in my area charge about $20 to do it, plus battery cost. Jewelers use a special tool called a watch press. I improvised with an Irwin clamp out of my workshop. Note that this clamp has rubber padded jaws, which help protect the watch. I centered the back carefully, and tightened the clamp slowly, and after a bit she popped right in. If you are not comfortable doing this, just pay a jeweler to do the job, because you can ruin an expensive watch if you are not very careful.
