Changing the Battery

Below is a quick guide to performing a DIY battery change on your 2353 powered watch. It’s easy enough. If it is your first time changing a battery on a Miyota quartz movement, just take your time. The arm with the hole in it is what holds the battery in. It moves slightly to release the battery. When installed a new cell, hold the arm out of the way and simply wedge the new battery under the tab on the left, press down on the battery and bring the arm back over. The arm has a spring-like resistance and should return to place on its own, as long as the battery is in place and not blocking it. Try not to slip the tool and scratch the coil.
