“It’s just a battery change. How hard can it be?”
Exhibit A.
This component lives tucked away inside a Casio timepiece, where it isn’t readily accessible. Judging by the result, the challenge appears to have been:
“How do I mangle this when I can’t even get to it?” 🤦♂️
We admire the determination. The technique… less so.
Despite appearances, this is a precision watch component, not an entry in the miniature origami championships.
A simple battery replacement can become a considerably less simple repair when enthusiasm exceeds expertise.
Please, for the love of all things horological, use a watchmaker. Your watch deserves a fresh battery, not a fight for its life.
