Best video for sure. I just changed my DW5600e using this video as a guide. Only tricky part for me was unlocking the battery... maybe I was being too gentle...but I got it eventually. $1 Duracell and a $7 thing of silicone grease and I'm good. The BEST watch in the world to me I'd back in order! I've worn the same watch since my basic training decades ago. My watch repair shop closed this past year (coronavirus) so I had to learn how to it on my own. Toughest watch in the world to me. I never take it off...fresh and salt water, fishing, banging into stuff, mud races, painting (and paint thinner!) And blood, guts, grease, and anything else I get into... this watch shines.

September 2021 - This wordless detailed filled very clear DIY video is outstanding. I especially like the way they wrapped the strap back. Awesome!

The whole procedure it's a little bit overkill but putting the strap that way in order to make the back plate easier to remove is a very good idea.

This guy has a very particular set of skills; skills that he has acquired over a very long career, skills that require those gloves.

Great video. I just replaced my battery thanks to you! Appreciate it very much. You’re very meticulous, I love it. No talking, just your mysterious black gloves and subtitles 👍🏽🙌🏽

Awesome tutorial. Only thing I'd add is be very careful of the alarm spring. You can see it clearly at 07:21. Controls all the sounds the watch makes. It can fall out, and good luck finding it 😁

Great video! It felt hard to find a trusted place to get the battery changed so I was tempted to do it myself but was worried to damage the watch. With this video it made me feel very confident. I was able to change it now in 15 minutes. I skipped the o-ring refurbishment as I do not have the product. I used a needle to unlock the battery and it went well. For the small coil I was careful and it stayed well in place. For the AC reset, I used an old copper wire and could have used a paper clip. I noticed my battery was low because the backlight no longer worked and the digits fading. It now works like a charm. Thank you!

This guy is a professional who does it so skilfully, diligently, even cleaning the back case, rubber gasket and reapplying silicone. If you go to a watch repair shop to replace the battery, do you think he will bother to other than simply replacing the battery and screwing the case back in place? I wish he would, but I know he wouldn't.

This guy wanted to be a heart doctor He's the assistant cook on the night shift over at Denny's I learned what I needed to know / thanks for posting this

I just replaced the battery on mine DW-5600E yesterday after 10 years obviously, I cleaned and applied the silicone grease on the gasket the watch is running like new ready for at least 5 + years on an energizer 2016 battery awesome video.

That’s a neat trick with the strap! I probably would have taken it off, then most likely sent a spring bar sailing through the living room and spent half an hour trying to find it. Your way is better.

This is the best video that I've found, really good camera work close up. I feel confident now working on my G-Shock. This person's a pro who's probably done dozens of these. Thank you for helping.

I think I'll just take my watch to my local watch repairman when I need a battery replacement. I'd be afraid of damaging my watch. But it was still cool to see exactly how the battery replacement is like. Thumbs up on the video!

Casio G-shock is the best tool watch that you can get without a doubt!

Thanks a lot. I got really puzzled when trying to remove the old battery, and your video saved me!

Сразу видно - профессионал! Даже без слов все понятно. Не то что наши- половину видео руками камеру закрывают))

Clear as a bell - Your slow & methodical technique made it easy to see how to get the job done, properly. THANK YOU !

Incredible instructional video and didn't need any verbal instructions. Even I could do this. I have three Casio solar-powered watches so, I know what I'll be watching when it comes time to replace the batteries in these watches. Thank;k you so much!!

Wanted to change the battery for the first time. In my mind it would be pretty easy. Turn out I stuck at the unlock battery part. Found this video, the rest is no brainer.. 🙏 Thanks.

It took me a while to get the battery out, I used a number of screwdrivers and a thin knife, then it popped open from the other side as I expected. Thank you!

3:47 satisfying sound.

Domo arigatogozaimasu! Very detailed, clear instructional video. I couldn’t get the original O ring to fit after cleaning and greasing it, ended up ordering a new one from EBay, which took a few days, but other than that, it went well.

Great video.. I just changed mine by referring your tutorial.. Using limited tools n experience, but it works.. Thanks..

A true professional at work. I doubt I could trust a jeweller to take such care to preserve water resistance.

Toughest watch in the world. Paid $49.00 brand new. Worth MORE than I paid for. Don’t think I took it off once for four years in the Marine Corps. Ate and slept with it 24/7. Girlfriend finally got on to me for NEVER taking it off .lol…Genuine Quality and I still wear one.

Great video. With those gloves and skill, he could probably disarm a bomb too.

Perfect tutorial! Battery installed without a hitch. Thanks!

Very enlightening and also really rare to find such a video on battery change. Good that someone actually thought of making it. It's really helpful. BTW, I have two questions with regard to this watch: 1) How long does the battery last in general? 2) Does it have a vibrator that vibrates when the alarm plays?

Just did the replacement. Just as easy as the video shows. Thanks again

These videos where there is no talking are no good. I needed detailed instructions on how to unlock the battery. Seeing him do it is not enough. I run into this all the time with these no talk videos. Thanks anyway.

This was done very well. I think he is a professional. It should be water tested after, but with how diligently and correctly everything was done I would be confident to take it in the water. IF you follow this 100% you shouldn't have any problems. Clean and grease the gasket and tighten opposite screws like this and it shouldn't ever leak.

For clean the rubber gasket, you shouldn't pull it like that because it may be too big.

Thank You! Battery replacement is easy thanks to you.

This looks very tricky .. Just going to pay the extra money and take my much loved Casio G-Shock to a watch shop. But thank you for this video.

It's actually harder than I thought it would be. Getting one of those 10-Year Battery models now.

Отличная инструкция. Спасибо!

Great video. The DW-5600 user manual should refer its owners to this page.

Man, thank You a lot :-) Just successfully changed battery in my DW 5600 BB. Works perfect. Never done that before to any watch.

I love the way he snap the tweezer onto the wooden table at the end of the clip.. What a stylish ending..

Nice and easy to follow. I did not have such nice and tiny tweezers. To unlock the batterie i used a needle and for the AC reset i used a piece of wire. Hopefully the water stays out 😬. Thanks for the video.

This felt tense, like I was watching someone perform a life saving operation😂

Very loud music

Awesome skill set. very precise and neat. I can tell you've done this once or twice. LOL Thanks for sharing

Good video for sure ! Reminds me of the Guinness ad when the tweezers end in the table!

Thank you very much for being so straightforward

I love your presentation you made it look so easy watching you do it I know I can do it I really like that it's getting the right tools let's see if Amazon has them tool kit to change battery and Casio watch let's see what comes up

Why do I feel like the guy is also a professional assassin in his spare time.

Wow, watched the whole video. Like an expert, great job and thank you!

hakaihan, an excellent video, thank you. I’ve never seen a anybody work so calmly and confidently and treat a watch with such care and it’s a lesson to us all I think. I can’t wait to start the battery replacement on my GB-6900BU I’m just a bit worried about releasing my battery cover. You seem to go in “sideways” to pry back one of the two prongs and it should pop open, right? Great idea about twisting the bracelet to assist access to the back of the watch, I’ve never seen that tip before. Another question do you really need to put that adhesive-backed round seal back over the battery? What is it’s purpose? Thanks again.

So I went to Macy's watch repair earlier and they quoted me 25 bucks. I passed up the offer and decided to do some research and DIY. After seeing this that quote of 25 bucks seems fair. Thanks for the vid

I changed the batteries of some of the watches in my house, it was so satisfying and a little challenging

Just replaced mine thank you for the great video 👍

Beautifully and Professionally done !

Don't lose the spring guys I got lucky and found mine. Fell off wen struggleing with the battery clip I got lucky and found it lost in the towel I was working on. Second time I replaced battery. Last time was 4 yrs ago

Very nice and professional work. I use also the Kluberpaste (seal paste for screws).

Nice work, professionally done.

Any issues with water after changing the battery? Solid video and enjoyed watching the process!

very nice!!! thank you for making this video! Greetings from Brazil!

Thanks for the video, shows the process nicely (was worried you’d tightened that first screw a little much, but recovered with cross pattern tightening). All I can think is, why did i not just buy the solar version, I can see the limited times I’ll wear this baby, I’ll probably be up the mountain & the battery will fail, and it’s not just a simple pop & swap, too bad

Muy bueno tu video ,aprendi algo que no sabia ....además agradezco que no le hayas puesto música...me gustaria ver como cambiar la correa ....muchas gracias....saludos desde Argentina.

I bet this guy is unbeatable on that board game OPERATION

Make sure you pry open the left side of the battery retainer. It should be pretty easy to open. The right side is not able to release and you will damage it if you pry too hard.

His next video, is going to show how to kill your next door neighbor without getting caught.

I think I should stick with the tough solar model.

This video is a very good reason to get the 5610 and leave the battery to the sun for maintenance.

Thanks. Very helpful. Question: What's the use of the seal? The rubber keep the battery from the metal cover already.

Well done a nice clean careful battery change over 👍

That thing is soooo over-engineered. I love it

Great video. However, if your watch is otherwise in great condition, I would order the o-ring before changing. Twice, despite treating carefully, the old one was too stretched to fit well into groove.

Great video! Do you know if changing the battery affects the water resistance?

Should have been playing the Mission Impossible theme song.

I thought it was simpler. Very useful video, thanks

Only seven ads interrupting the video, could you please squeeze in three or four more?

Hello, nice video. Do you need a conductive tweezer to reset this watch?

I changed the case and the belt with retro black steel for 70 USD. Now it looks like the watch of the Terminator.

What about the spring that makes the button tone "beep" for the alarms or hour mark? Those usually pop up in the air when you take the back case off the watch. I bought and re-sold a G-shock on eBay and had to change the battery. It popped out. The customer sent it back and I got a spring from the spring bar that keeps a regular watch's strap or bracelet on. I made sure to pick a spring bar that's spring inside of it was very close to the width of the original spring that came with the G-shock. I cut it with needle nose pliers with the sharp cutting tool part near the handle. Replaced the spring. Put the back case back on and the button tone "beep" for the alarms, hourly chime, and button operation "beep" worked properly again and mailed it back to the customer. Are there not these springs on the dw5600? They will pop out of the movement when the back case is removed and fly somewhere and get lost if you're not careful. This customer is how I found out how the button tone sound of a G-shock works. I watched a video on KZfaq on how to replace a lost spring and that's how I fixed the watch. I'm more careful now not to lose the original but because I was a watch dealer who bought, sometimes fixed and resold watches I had to do this a few times and I have lots of extra spring bars from sprucing up watches with new straps and bracelets. I'll also polish the watch but changing the spring in a G-shock, polishing the case, changing batteries and replacing straps and bracelets is all I know how to do. I made decent money at it until COVID-19 left half the country at home wondering how to make money before figuring out what I was doing and it became impossible to make enough money to keep doing it. It's definitely a "it takes money to make money" business.

Best tutorial. Professional.

Спасибо из России! Thanks frome Russia, bro!

I own a 5610 with solar cell. Why did I watch this entire video? Oh, yeah, because it's cool watching a professional at work....

hakaihan, are you still there? Do you have any videos about replacing a G-SHOCK band? I'm struggling with re-fitting a new band to my AWG-M100 Thanks, Peter I hope you are well. Your video "How to replace Casio G-Shock battery DW-5600E" is still my favourite watch video, and I've got a lot!

10:50 was struggling to unlock. Thanks. Need a tiny pin or fine tip tweezer. What is the reason to connect AC to (-)? It has mentioned in the sticker

excellent video, but I have a question: why is important to reset the watch? Thank you!

Thanks for the reset tip!

Hakai, what mm is the screwdriver? 1.2mm/1.4mm/1.6mm? And thank you for your video.

Merci pour ce tuto, qui m'a été utile ! 👍

Very nice tutorial. Thank you.

I didn't know you needed a degree in quantum physics to change a battery.

Can anyone say how important it is at @04:17 to reset with tweezers or reset at all? I am doing this without the use of the tools shown.

jesus, people. why are you so afraid of every little thing you can do yourself? you remove some screws, some rubber, pop the battery in, put everything back, lube a piece of rubber and screw back in. it's literally 5 minutes of work and half of what you do (the battery replacement part) is practically the same as replacing a battery in your digital kitchen scale, it's probably the same one :D

Listo para otros 10 años de uso.

Nice video, very professional!!! Subbed

Thank you for this video! It was of great help. 有り難う御座います。

Unfortunately, I never found out where the screw that is responsible for adjusting the accuracy of the watch is located. I can't find a video showing it anywhere. The second point is that the display module in the watch is crooked, but the author of the video apparently did not pay attention to this and did not correct it when disassembling the watch. The unevenness can be seen in the frame where the month and date are displayed. The top side of the frame is crooked in relation to the watch frame, which is clearly visible from 10:02.

Yea sending my 2 G Shocks to Casio. I know how to change a battery. Not gonna risk losing da water resistant. That right there is worth paying da money for.

Спасибо тебе, МАСТЕР.

This is fantastic asmr!!

I don’t understand why the watch needs to be turned back on.

Gracias por el video es un gran apoyo saludos desde México 🤠👍👏 migo

I polished my case back as well.

Very nice and detailed. What you used to clean O ring?
