First time changing a battery and using a watch press !
Last week was I was able to open the back of my grandpa’s old Seiko and when I changed the battery I didn’t know you need a watch presser if the caseback is a SnapBack. This watch is from 2003 hence why it’s not like modern watches today. I got the watch press from Aliexpress and it came in less than a week. Now I don’t gotta every pay for battery changes again. I already have been changing my own links on bracelets. Now I want to learn how to mod and build watches. The watch presser only cost me $14 and it will pay for itself, but eventually I want a better built presser.

Same here, tool me a while to figure out why I couldn't snap back with my fingers. Got a cheap press as well to help
I need one of those ! I have a few case backs that I cannot get back on.

Thanks @CastellxMets for the link. Taking off, and putting back on, case backs is not one of my skills ! This will help a lot.
its freaky how cheap things on aliexpress are... for some tools, like non-precision, you kinda cant beat it.
