Snap Back on a Skagen Jorn

Decoda

Hi, looking for a small bit of advice? My sons watch (Skagen Jorn) needed a battery replacement and I'm looking for advice on how to put the back of the watch on? I think it's whats called a snap back, can I just press the back on again or do I need to get a jeweller to fit it? I'm trying to press it back on but can't seem to get it to snap back into place. Sorry if it seems like a silly question, I'm just afraid to put any real pressure on it in case I break it, its his favourite watch!!

Many thanks, D.

Thanks funk,

I've tried but for some reason I can't get it to "snap" back into place, I've lined it up correctly with the notch in the correct position but no luck. That guy makes it look so easy but I'll keep at it. Thanks again.

I broke the glass on a watch a few years ago pressing too hard on a snap on caseback, you sure their isn’t any debris in the watch stopping it seating, or the o ring not being seated correctly?

There doesn't appear to be any debris and the o ring seems to be sitting in place......it just won't snap back.....thanks for the reply again. At this stage I think I'll see if a jeweller can make out what's the matter.....appreciate the help.
